I wonder whether this may be due to the python installer being link to one version of the C runtime and python another (python 2.6 is linked against the MSVCR 9.0). If you need ipython quickly, I would simply try building the installer myself from sources - as ipython does not have dependency and is pure python, it should be straightfoward to do a python setup.py bdist_wininst, cheers, David -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
