From menu:
Options > Customize Emacs > Specific Option
Iswitchb Mode
Turn it on
Save for Current and Future Sessions

This will put something like:

 '(iswitchb-mode t nil (iswitchb))

into the custom-set-variables section of your .emacs

Then, so you don't have to restart Emacs just place cursor after this 
expression in .emacs and press C-x C-e to evaluate it. Or maybe that is 
already accomplished by the Save for Current Session option in 
Customize; I never checked.

Works for me.
