File Read issue by using module binascii

[Fábio Santos]

It may be that you are printing too much data at once. 100k is a bit too
much to have in memory but it should run anyway. But your console may be
having trouble. Try looping over small chunks of the file and printing them
one at a time. Use a while loop. I do know that in windows the console is
not very efficient at printing so when I print too much data the console
itself starts taking up a lot of processor time.
