Dear Bob, Just get WinPython at: https://code.google.com/p/winpython/
Run the exe installer. It makes a folder that contains everything. If you want, it can be your default python installation, which I recommend. A single command from it's own control panel will update the windows registry. You might also want to add a path to the folder. This will create a normal program icon on your desktop to run spyder. It will be the cleanest, easiest to manage python you've ever had. It is very frustrating to install sources of big python scripts. Everything comes from the unix/linux world where everything is a file and the files better be in the right place. But, you can do it. In the python\scripts folder you should find spyder.bat. Just right click on this and choose send to desktop to create an icon that launches the bat file. You don't need to run python first. The .bat file does that for you. Just double click on the link icon. Voila.
