OK, maybe I am getting somewhere now. I am now running my command window as an Administrator. So, the command window stays open so I can see what is happening. So, from the command window I run this command (on one line): easy_install -allow-hosts=lxml.de, *.python.org,codespeak.net,gethub.com lxml==2.3.4 I added codespeak.net and gethub.com to the command myself, as I was getting BLOCKED messages from the script for those URLs. Now, I am *still* getting BLOCKED messages for the github sites. These, I notice, are https, rather than http addresses. Is this the source of my problem? I get 8 "file not found" warnings during the build (e.g. missing file lxml.etree.c, lxml.objectify.c, etc.), then a fatal error: 'IDB' is illegal extension for PDB file. It is trying to run cl.exe in a Visual Studio 9 bin directory. Running this on an completely up-to-date version of Windows 7. Any ideas? Thanks!
