I don't know, but there is a wget or curl or similar program for
windows, isn't it?  The script is so simple that I suspect it's easily
portable to the DOS shell.

I run it from my crontab (so it runs automatically every half an hour
here), I have no idea if there is something similar on windows.  Gnus
then automatically finds the downloaded rss feeds in `nnrss-directory'.
