First of all, don't you mix up w3m (emacs-w3m, or the so-called
w3m-el in some Linux distribution) with w3 (Emacs/W3) ?
Try: M-x locate-library RET w3m RET
and: M-x locate-library RET w3 RET

If you wish to use emacs-w3m along with Gnus, see:
(info "(emacs-w3m)Gnus") <- type `C-x C-e' here

If you don't have the emacs-w3m Info manual, visit:
http://emacs-w3m.namazu.org/info/emacs-w3m_60.html
(But it is for the officially released version of emacs-w3m that
 is somewhat old.  You can obtain the latest one, including Info,
 from: http://cvs.namazu.org/emacs-w3m.tar.gz )
