When running twisted you are likely running it as yourself from a
shell accessed via Windows GUI.

When Apache is run it is run as a service, which doesn't have access
to the Windows GUI environment.

This issue has been discussed before on the list but I don't remember
what the outcome is. Read:

  http://groups.google.com/group/modwsgi/browse_frm/thread/eb6cb4e790ad6d19

to see if there was an outcome.
