I got it to work again, by switching back to python-2.5.2.msi and
cx_Freeze-4.0.1.win32-py2.5.msi
I could not get it to work for python-2.6.msi and
cx_Freeze-4.0.1.win32-py2.6.msi.
It also worked for python-2.4.4.msi and cx_Freeze-4.0.1.win32-py2.4.exe
PS: I am running XP Professional SP2 (updated)
The only differences I see between the two is that msvcr90.dll is used instead
of msvcr71.dll used by python25 and prior
and that the console.exe from cx_Freeze is different for each version.
It is a pity, I can not switch to Python26 because of this.

Subject: executables no longer executing on PC's without Python installed
Anthony,
could I bother you with a problem I recenty encounter with cx_Freeze ?
Do you have any suggestions I could look at.
I have been a long time user of cx_Freeze, and it always worked very well for
me.
For a long time I have used Python 2.4 (briefly 2.5.x) and cx_Freeze 3.0.1
I recently switched to Python 2.6.
I use the latest cx_Freeze-4.0.1.win32-py2.6.msi.
now, all of a sudden, my executables fail to execute on other people's PC's
(they do not have any Python installed, my PC does).
The Windows cmd line gives the following error: "The system can not execute the
specified program"
The program still executes on my PC.
(The funny thing is, I tried to switch to py2exe, and the generated
distribution did exactly the same)
I wanted to attach the distribution as it is generated by cx_Freeze, but your
gmail account refused attachments holding executable files.
To build the distribution, I use the following command line options:
cxfreeze.bat --target-dir= N:\sw_tools\CFGMGR \bin\latest\
--target-name=VERSIONMGR.exe N:\sw_tools\CFGMGR
\src\VERSIONMGR\VERSIONMGR.py
This is the output it dumps to the screen:
