[python-win32] broken install. win32com has no 'client'

Hi,  I have somehow broken my installation of pythonwin win32all.  I recently
uninstalled 207 and installed 208, hoping that would fix it... but no change.

The biggest clue something is broken is I have no win32com.client object.

import win32com
win32com.client
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'client'
dir(win32com)
['SetupEnvironment', '__PackageSupportBuildPath__', '__build_path__',
'__builtins__', '__doc__', '__file__', '__gen_path__', '__name__', '__path__',
'_frozen', 'gen_py', 'win32com']

I also can't use any typelibs in py2exe anymore.

What's the best way to uninstall everything that effects pythonwin so that when
I re-install I get a working copy?

Thanks,
-Jim
