There does not appear to be an official Apache module of that name and so would not be included in XAMPP:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/

I found a third party module of that name by using a Google Search that you would have to install yourself, if there is a suitable binary .so for Windows Apache that is.

Because mod_security is a only firewall, have you checked your own PC firewall is not the cause of your problem?

BTW it helps to provide error messages, the forum name and anything else that may be of help troubleshooting your issues with XAMPP.
