Python 2.7.2 for Windows reports version as 2.7.0?

[python at bdurham.com]

Hi Benjamin,

> The file info is seems correct but I just checked the MSI and it's
reporting that it's 2.7.2. How exactly are you running python.exe and
IDLE- are you calling the full path, just calling "python" and using
whichever python version is first on your path, or are you using an
entry in the start menu? The only thing I can think of is that your
2.7.0 install is in a different location than your 2.7.2 install. So
2.7.2 installed correctly but you're still running the old one.

Within the folder where the python.exe exists, I have tried the 
following, all of which report Python 2.7.0 vs. 2.7.2

python
python.exe
c:\python27

Confirming I'm running what I think I'm running:

>>> import sys
>>> sys.hexversion
34013424
>>> sys.executable
'C:\\Python27\\python.exe'
>>>

And confirming the exe files in my Python27 folder:

 Directory of C:\Python27

06/12/2011  03:09 PM            26,624 python.exe
06/12/2011  03:06 PM            27,136 pythonw.exe

Anyone else having the same experience?
