If you're trying to bring down your fever, have a coolish (not cold) bath. Take a fever reducer if it's really high.
As far as sticking your head out a window, something like that'd just make your body work harder...I don't know.
Keep this in mind...
a fever over 103 that lasts more than a couple hours should be seen immediately by a doctor.
a fever over 104 should be brought down right away
anything over 105 can cause brain damage... at that point, take a very cool bath and stay in there until it drops back down...
