I would like to start by apologizing to Danny, has I did not reply to him immediately. Danny sent me an email regrading the installation of psycop2 for PostgreSQL. He was getting a Visual Studio installation error. I have been wrapped up at work and have just recently gotten around to really looking at my email. If it is not too late. Here is the reply email message, that solved my problem. Again, Danny, please accept my sincere apologies.

The true reason that message appears is because the MSVC++ 2008 runtime libraries are not installed. The Python 2.6 installer will install the runtime librarires. If you still have problems installing it after installing Python 2.6, it could be that there's something funky with the runtime libraries. You can install them by hand by downloading the following package from Microsoft: http://www.microsoft.com/downloadS/details.aspx?familyid=9B2DA534-3E03-4391-8A4D-074B9F2BC1BF&displaylang=en ################## End Jason's Reply ########################################### This fixed my problem.
