It seems to me that you're typing "python", hitting Enter key, then typing "helloworkd.py" *inside* the Python interactive shell and that's *not* what I said!
All you need to type is "python helloworld.py", then hit the Enter key. Of course, you need to be inside the directory that holds that file. Just start a command prompt, type "cd C:\Documents and Settings\Micky", hit Enter, type "python helloworld.py", hit Enter and your script should run fine. If you get anything else, just repost here again. Do *not* let this get in your way of learning! If I (or anyone else on this list) didn't want to help you, we wouldn't responded to your questions in the first place.
