After doing this you will see something like

'C:\\Python24\\lib\\site-packages\\wx-2.6-msw-ansi' (from my system)

in the list, otherwise it isn't finding wxPython. Also, probably just 
looking at the version of Python you are using when the interactive 
prompt starts up might give you a clue. If it's different than the 
version you installed wxPython in, then that's why it isn't finding it. 
(But I don't know if the version that the interactive prompt uses is 
necessarily the version that will be used to run your program, assuming 
you have multiple versions installed, so maybe these methods won't be 
perfectly accurate. Not sure how it gets decided which version to use if 
you have more than one, especially on Unix systems.)
