Is that the exact error message you get? If not, please tell us the
exact error message.

You wonder why I don't believe that this is the exact error message?
There is no such thing as a python.dll on Windows. The Python DLLs
always carry the major and minor version numbers, like python21.dll or
python22.dll.

Gerhard is correct, as far back as Python 1.5 (determined by searching
for python*.dll on my machine). Jacek, ignore any suggestions to the
contrary. Not sure what's going on there; either (a) inappropriate use
of the time machine or (b) bot rot or (c) the bot has been hacked ...
