Hi Yarrow, I assume you don't have the latest PyMOL version (1.5), which has improved plugin support and should not raise such an error.
I don't know "movs.py" but it looks like it has not been written as a "plugin", but just a normal PyMOL/python script (again, PyMOL 1.5 will not make such a strong differentiation). Try to load the script with the "run" command on the command line: PyMOL> run movs.py http://pymolwiki.org/index.php/Running_Scripts Hope that helps.
