Are you sure your path to gnuplot is correct? Shouldn't it be
'c:\Python22\...

I originally suggested changing the popen call to os, and it continues
to work for me. However, I cannot compare with your setup because I am
now under Win2000, using Python22, gnuplot compiled from cvs with the
latest pgnuplot.exe.
