I don't know Windows, but my guess is still that it's finding some other file called stat.py before it's finding the system library one. Try doing a file system search for all files named "stat.py" and see what you find. On unix, I would do "find / -name stat.py". I assume there's something similar on Windows. The other thing I would try is tracing the python process as it starts up. On unix, I would do something like "strace -e trace=file python" and see if it's finding a stat.py in some unexpected place. Again, I can only assume there's something similar on Windows. Oh, and please don't post with Google Groups. It double-spaces everything and makes your message really difficult to read. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
