It is intermittent, and will work the next day. And I am lucky enough to have 
30 computers with only 20 students. It doesn't happen enough to worry me, but 
it frustrates the students. Which depending on the day can be a bonus. :)

Subject: Re: [Edu-sig] Problem with Python in Windows

I've got a class of 270 students running Python 3.x in a Windows lab (22 
machines) with essentially all students running their own copies on a variety 
of laptops -- mostly windows but many macs.

The firewall is a good suggestion, but I haven't seen this problem.

We are having a problem running python 3.x with windows 7 also. It says it 
can't (no processor or something), then it can. Seems like python and windows 
don't play well together.

Subject: [Edu-sig] Problem with Python in Windows

Yesterday I was running the Windows version of the Python 2.7.3 shell with IDLE 
as my editor. I saved a file and ran it and got some error message which 
unfortunately I don't remember. I then closed Python and when I tried to 
re-open it, I got the following error message:
IDLE's subprocess didn't make a connection. Either IDLE can't start a 
subprocess or personal firewall software is blocking the connection.
I rebooted my computer, thinking that would solve the problem, but it didn't. I 
then uninstalled and reinstalled Python but got the same message. It's 
certainly not the firewall because that wasn't changed in the 15-20 minutes' 
times during which this happened. I am running Windows 7 with the latest 
service pack.

Any suggestions on how I can fix this would be greatly appreciated.
