First question:  what version of Python ?  And do you know where it's
installed?  Since you're on Windows, I won't bother to tell you to use
the which command.

Your latest post seems to imply you're using a 2.x version of paramiko,
and trying to install it on Python 3.3

What's this?  Are you working in some environment other than the command
line?  If you are, then you should make sure it all works on the command
line before trying to separately debug why the IDE (or whatever) is
messing you up.

Now we're getting somewhere.  Now the questions are where did paramiko
get installed to, and where is python looking for it.

For the former, hopefully you remember what it said when it installed,
or you can search the drive for paramiko.*
     dir /s  \paramiko.*


For the latter, you can add the following line to ufo.py, just before
the import line:

import sys
print "import path is ", sys.path
