<tt>I've got a class of 270 students running Python 3.x in a Windows
lab (22 machines) with essentially all students running their own
copies on a variety of laptops -- mostly windows but many macs.<br>
<br>
The firewall is a good suggestion, but I haven't seen this
problem.<br>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yesterday I was running the Windows
version of the Python 2.7.3 shell with IDLE as my editor. I
saved a file and ran it and got some error message which
unfortunately I don't remember. I then closed Python and
when I tried to re-open it, I got the following error
message:<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<blockquote
style="margin-top:5.0pt;margin-right:0in;margin-bottom:5.0pt">
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">IDLE's subprocess didn't make a
connection. Either IDLE can't start a subprocess or
personal firewall software is blocking the connection. <o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
</blockquote>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">I rebooted my computer, thinking that
would solve the problem, but it didn't. I then uninstalled
and reinstalled Python but got the same message. It's
certainly not the firewall because that wasn't changed in
the 15-20 minutes' times during which this happened. I am
running Windows 7 with the latest service pack.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any suggestions on how I can fix this
would be greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p></p>
