New submission from Celia Horne <oneidiotinat...@gmail.com>:

Hey there!

I'm very new to Python, but I've been getting along fairly well. However, last 
night I tried to open the IDLE editor (on its own and with a .py file)but 
nothing would open. It just sat there acting like it was going to load, but 
still nothing occurred.

Originally I was using version 2.6.5, but I started experiencing these same 
problems with it. I looked online but could find no help or suggestions. I 
tried uninstalling/reinstalling, I made sure I am already set as the Admin, (as 
I am the only user on this computer, and there is only my account, not even a 
guest account) and I looked to see if there was a Windows Vista patch or 
Vista-only issue, but to no avail. At this point, I am completely lost and I 
really need some assistance.

I installed the newer version (3.1.2) and I'm still having the same issues. The 
CMD prompt works just fine, as it did with the older version, but nothing I do 
can bring up the IDLE editor.

Any help would be VERY appreciated, because I was really looking forward to 
using and learning python, but now I'm feeling very defeated.

Thanks
