Pythoncom and pywintypes

[Vistro]

Hey, there. I've been coding in python for about three weeks now. I have
made basic games, tools to check forum PMs for me, and other general
utilities with python, but I'm now encountering problems.

I want to do that, and I have installed both sets needed from source forge,
but I always get this issue when I run the code, and there isn't a single
listing on the internet that addresses this.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Documents and Settings/Guest Editor/Desktop/key.py", line 3, in

    import pywintypes
ImportError: No module named pywintypes

    if event.Key == 'Back':
        winsound.Beep(38, 3000)

        winsound.Beep(392, 200)

hm = pyHook.HookManager()
hm.KeyDown = funkytown
hm.HookKeyboard()
pythoncom.PumpMessages()


I've installed pythoncom right from the box. I don't know whats wrong, but
I'm sure it has something to do with my stupidity.


BUT, here is the strangest part.

# Magic utility that "redirects" to pythoncomxx.dll
import pywintypes
pywintypes.__import_pywin32_system_module__("pythoncom", globals())


That is ALL that pythoncom.py seems to be. ALL that.

I think that it's trying to import something, THEN tell the interpreter
where it is. That seems kinda stupid.

Anyway, what have I done wrong, and how do I fix it?
