- closing down IDLE and pressing ctrl alt and del I notice that 3 copies of pythonw are in memory
I closed these down and IDLE is working again
Hi,
for what it's worth, I've never had issues with Firefox and IDLE when running Zone Alarm. (Currently running ZoneAlarm version:5.5.062.004)
But the multiple copies of pythonw seems key, and also the sort of thing that better Python minds than most seem to accept they have to live with too: <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/edu-sig/2005-January/004365.html>

Thanks Brian and Danny
Yep - I found closing down the extra versions was a solution I also ran spybot and found a browser hijacker (just returned from a month in Linux without such hindrances) and it may be somehow related to that - the problem SEEMS to have gone . . .

I've been pretty happy using IDLE supplemented by SciTe when wanting a better editor than that provided by IDLE.
Best,
Brian vdB

Will have a look at SciTe thanks for your help - appreciate it . . .
