Larry, Thanks for your post. Sorry for not making myself clear. I am building for Windows first then porting to OSX and Linux later What I need is a webinstaller or a exe file then will start downloading Python 2.5, Firefox 3 and Thunderbird 2 and install them into a different dir from the default install. (To prevent version conflict) A python script will : using Firefox3 import feature - import all available settings from Internet Explorer 6, 7 into Firefox 3 (password, cookies, favorites, history) using Thunderbird 2 import feature - import from outlook express 5,6 and Outlook into Thunderbird 2 (emails, pop, smtp, imap settings, password, contacts) I need python modules to read the contacts and emails in Thunderbird 2 to create new contacts and send emails in Thunderbird 2 (just added this) to read the history, cookies, bookmarks, passwords stored in Firefox 3 with the cookie/password get selected web pages with urlib/urlib2 (just added this too) These python modules will be used by a CMS(KPAX) running under web2py. It will be good to use existing open source modules. I am also prepared to engage a freelancer to help me develop the modules Thanks Dennis -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
