I want Python pack that can run without being installed, mostly for testing programs. As I read, Movable Python can run without being installed. It needs no registry entries and knows the path to all the dlls (system or otherwise) that it uses. Whats about ActivePython http://www.activestate.com/activepython/downloads? Does it requires installation?

The .MSI installer does require installation, but there is also a .ZIP package which doesn't. It is not visible in the downloads page, but you can always get it here:

   http://downloads.activestate.com/ActivePython/releases/2.6.5.12/
   (substitute with latest version)

When I just tried the "ActivePython-2.6.5.12-win64-x64.zip" on my Win7 x64 machine - by extracting and running python.exe (from INSTALLDIR/) without installing - it just worked.

Not works for me. I tried run python script from INSTALLDIR/ - not works for me. Looks, its extremely inconveniet, not user-friendly. There's a vaste quanity of various stuff inside pyhon folders.
