Thanks for the help. I gave it a try after downloading and installing VC++ Express. Had to make a couple modifications to the setup.py file. However get the following errors:

At the time of release, the current version used to be 2.6. I haven't updated to 2.7 since then, and nowadays I have no Windows workstation to generate a new one (this is one of the reasons PyUSB development is frozen). I can upload an installer as soon as I can, but generating one isn't that hard, you need to have Python 2.7 installed (of course), libusb-win32 and the Visual C++ version which Python was built with (you can use Express Version, I guess). With that, enter in Visual C++ command prompt, go to PyUSB folder and run "python setup.py bdist --format=wininst" or "python setup.py bdist --format=msi". MSI installer is kind of new and I haven't tried that, took it from Python docs. More details can be found here: http://docs.python.org/distutils/builtdist.html. Don't forget that you have to make libusb-win32 include and lib files available to Visual C++. The easiest way is to copy them to Visual C++ respective folders.
