This may be a good clue. I'm not the author of the sentuser.py program that 
I'm using 2.4 for. It's an application meant for another PC. On that 
machine, I only have 2.4 installed. I decided to learn Python a few weeks 
ago and installed 2.5.It's quite possible there's some confusion with the 
just installed application. I have not yet started my education on python, 
so know little about it.

I did a search in the python24 folder for sys.exec* (in c:\python24), but 
came up with nothing. [nothing in a search of c:--sys.exec*] I have two 
python folders, c:\python24 and c:\python25. The contents of both folders 
look fairly similar and each have a python.exe. I do not use a PIL or 
Numeric in 2.5.
