Hi Richard!
I have downloaded iptcinfo and placed it in python27\Lib\site-packages
\iptcinfo

I guessed that was the right place, because that is where PIL ended
up, but that had a fancy installer with it.

You did place it in the right path, but the "fancy installer" does one more thing, it registers the package into the python-path, so python can get to it. I've long switched from windows unfortunately and can't remember the way it does this though, so you can do it manually.

Have some good news though: I looked in the IPTCinfo package and it does indeed include a setup.py, which is a standard way of installing python packages.
All you need to do is unpack the package to any folder and run
setup.py install
from that folder, which should take care of everything for you.

Some documentation on installing packages for you to read:
