If your *.py files do not execute, I wonder if you have Python and wxPython installed. You need to install Python 2.4 or higher and wxPython 2.8.1.1 or higher. If installing for the first time or upgrading from Python 2.3 or less, I recommend just getting the current version of both--2.5.2 for Python and 2.8.7 for wxPython.
