First of all, try tightening the field. Are all of these packages needed to 
reproduce the error? Try to start the interpreter in a command line window and 
see if it happens there, too. That eliminates Eclipse.

Might be a problem with GTK for Windows, I don't know.

Type
import gtk
Does that crash? Or is it something like
dir(gtk)

Try different versions of GTK and pygtk. Look at the pygtk homepage to see 
which combination is known to work.
