Tell them to install Python from an official source, and then
distribute your application as a single .py (or .pyw) file. Problem
solved.

Thanks for the obvious suggestion, but if they have difficulty whitelisting the app then installing python is also
probably beyond their abilities :( and I think it ought to be easier for the pyinstaller created executables to 'just work'.
The current exe works on very old versions of windows as well. Some people are reluctant to change old win 95/xp
machines just to run a single app.
I had supposed there might be a simple mechanism to get these applications validated in some way, but it seems not. MS
seems uninterested.
