OK, well just to confirm, I saved your code
as blah3.py, started an interpreter 
(Python 2.4.2 on XP Pro) and did:

<interp>
from blah3 import *
blah3.ppn ()
</interp>

and all was well.

Which obviously doesn't help you at all.

Get version 0.6b for the moment (if you don't have
it - http://tgolden.sc.sabren.com/python/downloads/wmi-0.6b.py).
Then set the _DEBUG flag to True. (v0.6 doesn't have this flag).

<code>
import wmi
wmi._DEBUG = True

c = wmi.WMI ()
# This will print a moniker looking something like this:
#
winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=Impersonate,authenticationLevel=Default}/ro
ot/cimv2
</code>

and let me know what comes out.
