The Windows version of web2py does NOT require Python to be installed under Windows. Apparently, web2py relies on its internal Python. So installing for my Python install is totally irrelevant.
My Windows PC is not set up to compile C code. This is an extra step I do not care to engage in. In the past, when I've tried to build packages from C source, it has been a frickin' nightmare dealing with compiler errors, dependencies, etc. When you compile from source, you are NEVER guaranteed a clean compile. I simply do not have the time to deal with compiling C source. I've looked at prebuilt Win32 binaries of encryption packages, but even they present problems. That's why I'm looking for help here...
