This is normally accompanied with a traceback in the interactive window.

The win32all builds offer to uninstall the old version for you.  I
can't remember if they insist, tho.

Actually, this is no longer true.  Since about 125 or so, all
tracebacks that would have previously been written to a log are now
displayed in a dialog box.  However, these are restricted to errors
when Pythonwin is starting up, which usually means there is not yet an
interactive window to which the error can be printed.  Once Pythonwin
has actually started it will not display a dialog or write a log - all
errors simply go to the interactive window...
