can't find tk.tcl

[John Zouck]

I had a problem that sounds like this several weeks ago, and finally found that
there were some tcl/tk .dll files in /windows/system that , when deleted, made
things work right. Before I found this, I tried every other kind of clean-up and
reinstall of python to no avail. I had installed tcl/tk months (or years) before,
which probably caused these files to be there. I don't know why it worked, but it
did, and this is just a suggestion.
