It is always good practice to Google the error. Others have met with it, e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12805044/python-console-importerror-pyunicodeucs4-fromstring . This might help (suggests there is a .pyc file compiled under another version of Python), or check other links on a Google search.
