Python for ASP

I'm trying to write an HTTP client using ASP, but don't think I can do that
with VBScript, so am trying Python instead.

What do I need to do to be able to use Python with Active Server Pages?  It
won't just work with ASP "out of the box": I get this as an error message
when I just set the language directive: <%@ LANGUAGE = Python %>

Error Type:
Active Server Pages, ASP 0129 (0x80004005)
The scripting language 'Python' is not found on the server.
/whatever.asp, line 1

This is on Win2000/IIS 5, with Python 1.5.2.  The tutorial at
http://starship.python.net/crew/pirx/asp/py_asp.html doesn't address the
configuration issue.

Thanks in advance

George
