AWESOME - my life just got THAT much better.

The bug you suggested is exactly the problem that I was having... I
had looked through the bugs being tracked, but the title of that one
didn't jump out at me as something that would help.  Thanks!

P.S. For anyone reading this group who wants to know exactly what I
did:
1) Uninstall Pywin32
2) Open the registry editor ('regedit' at the command prompt)
3) Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Python[version]\Python for Win32
You will likely find many many many keys that have the format
"ToolbarDefault-Bar#".  These keys filling up your registry cause
Windows 2000 to become extremely slow/unstable when Python is running
(especially if your debugger is running.)
4) Delete the keys... I just deleted it at the "Python[version]" root
5) Reinstall Pywin32

This is a great workaround but I've found that, with build 203, it needs to be repeated from time to time.

These look like symptoms of sf bug #1017504
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1017504&group_id=78018&atid=551954

What version of Pywin32 are you running ?
There's a (semi) fix for this in the latest build.
