Could I get the MD5 of your $PYTHONDIR\DLLs\_socket.pyd to see if it matches mine? >>> data = file('_socket.pyd', 'rb').read() >>> import md5 >>> md5.md5(data).hexdigest() '7a7fc2d9e9df65690658c989bd9e95bb' It's looking like it might be a corrupt DLL or something to which it links is causing issues. Alternatively, it might be possible to find/download the 2.4.3 _socket.pyd, or possibly overwrite it with a 2.4.4 _socket.pyd (I don't know how backwards compatible the ABI is for binary modules) Thanks! -tkc -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
