While looking into this, I had seen some mention of protocol option in pickle. I hadnt specified anything for protocol, so it defaults to 0 though I dont know what that is. Its my first time using pickle and second with py2exe. Thanks for the suggestion, Ill keep trying at this and another idea without pickle.
