Python won't run

[kevin hayes]

I installed it...with the package that came with python 2.6. When I had 2.5
I was using it(idle) successfully, until I ran a few programs that I got off
the web.  Then, Idle wouldn't open (it just bounced in the dock and then
disappeared).  So I tried installing 2.6 and the same thing happened.
