Looks like you have the PYTHONSTARTUP(http://docs.python.org/2/using/cmdline.html#envvar-PYTHONSTARTUP) environment set to file and pvpython is importing that file on startup which isn't really designed for the python packaged with ParaView (I'm assuming you are using the binaries from paraview.org directly).
You can unset PYTHONSTARTUP env. var. before running pvpython, however I believe i'd be safe to ignore the error in any case. Look at the script and check if whatever your sysadmin set the script to do is essential for you.
