The .exe package was created by me, for Python 2.4.
Why that and not 2.5?  Because I've set up only Python 2.4 to compile
with gcc/cygwin.
I have Python 2.5 for windows installed, but it requires something
like MS Visual C to compile C extensions.

Unfortunately I've very limited time to follow all the steps required
to use cygwin with Python 2.5 on Windows.
Maybe I'll check if things are easier now: years ago, it was a
quite long process. :-/

Oh, by the way: you're using x64 and my package is for i386, so
the C module will probably explode anyway, on your system. :-)

Best solution for you: download the .tar.gz package, unpack it
(7-zip will handle .tgz nicely), open a command prompt, move in
the directory and run:
  C:\Python2.5\python.exe setup.py install

If you don't have a working environment for compiling C extensions
installed, it will complains.  In this case, sql and local data
access systems will be really slow; http and mobile will work
as usual.

Sorry: I don't have other solution; maybe someone out these can
create some Windows packages for Python 2.5 i386 and x64.
