To tell for sure, open the python interpreter and do:
import csv
print csv.__file__
That will tell you exactl

It should be as easy as this:
import csv
testfile = open('testfile.csv', 'w')
testdata = """100-01001-001,"

Do you have your own base64.py (or base64.pyc) that's shadowing the

At a guess, x = box() does create a new instance of your box class,
