This part I can help you with:
>>> import platform
>>> platform.platform()
'Windows-2000-5.0.2195-SP4' # in my case
>>> platform.architecture()
('32bit', 'WindowsPE')
>>> platform.python_version()
'2.4.2'
>>> platform.python_compiler()
'MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)'
>>> platform.python_build()

I'm on a Win2K 2.4.2 system, and Idle let's me do:
>>> import urllib
>>> g = urllib.urlopen('http://www.google.com')
>>> g.read(12)
'<html><head>'
So off-hand, I'd suspect some firewall thingie is getting in the way.
Can you "bless" \Python24\python.exe and \Python24\pythonw.exe as
applications allowed to do net traffic?
