Permission Denied With os.rename On Win32

[John Abel]

OK, fixed this problem.  Windows is a little more strict than Linux, 
about moving files that you have a refernce to.  Solving this, 
highlighted another problem.  I am building up a path from strings, that 
are unicode, and I keep getting:

UnicodeError: UTF-8 decoding error: unexpected end of data

Can someone point me in the right direction for dealing with Unicode?

Thanks

John
