I've encountered a glitch: I can't seem to update the values in the rules I retrieve. The relevant snippet is
<python>
con = wmi.WMI(namespace=wpcns)
rules = con.WpcURLOverride (Sid=kelsey.SID)
for r in rules:
    if r.URL.endswith("facebook.com/"):
        # flip whether or not the site is allowed
        r.Allowed = 3 - r.Allowed
        r.Put_()
        print r.URL, r.Allowed, "(%s)"%allowInterp(r.Allowed), kelsey.name
</python>
This never changes the value of Allowed, even between the line where it is set and printed out, much less between runs.

Just occurs to me: there was a bug in versions < 1.4.6 which would have
caused this. Are you using the latest version? (I'll still try to get
hold of a Vista/W7 machine to try out on...)
I was using 1.4.5 (via pypm and ActiveState).  They have version 1.4.6
now; I installed it.  However, it didn't help.

Curses. Clutching at straws: does wmi.__version__ definitely show "1.4.6"?


Does anybody know which package wins if I install wmi manually?

I don't use pypm so don't know how much messing it does with
sys.path (which is what would presumably make the difference...)


BTW, the title of your web page
http://timgolden.me.uk/python/wmi/index.html (as shown in browser frame)
still says 1.4.5.

Thanks. My Sphinx build had got out of sync. Fixed now.
