Pythonwin has probably somehow remembered it's screen location as off 
the screen.

Try deleting the "HKLM\Software\Python 2.1\Python for Win32" key from 
the registry, and it should come back.

Alternatively, from the task-bar select "Move", then use the arrow keys 
to try and bring it back on screen (presumably with the "Left" and "Up" 
keys)
