If you are, try looking at the VPython archives <https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/visualpython-users>, specifically this<http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_name=505EA4AE.5050201%40aut.ac.nz&forum_name=visualpython-users>. I chose that because although I know almost nothing about VPython it is recent. Try VPython's list even if it isn't as they're likely to know more than us. Also, this error is distinctly different to the one you first posted. What happened there?
