    Your Python application may not be being run by python.exe but as an 
in-process COM object by, for example, Internet Explorer. COM loads the 
Python COM DLL pythoncomXY.dll which loads pythonXY.dll through an 
implicit link step. The implicit link will only find pythonXY.dll in a 
particular set of places (path, system directories, host executable), 
with the Windows system directory being the easiest to find and use.
