I'm sorry. Here are some facts:
Winodws XP SP3 with newest updates Visual Studio 2005 Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable I downloaded Python 2.6 installer for Windows from python.org I use Python with boost 1.36 for Python (could this be a problem?)
I want to use Python 2.6 because it was (i think so) built with VS2005. So I haven't to use msvcr71.dll. On monday I can send a stack trace and a screenshot of this crash a with E-Mail.

This could be one of thousands of things. If it works with 2.5 and no more with 2.6 some possible candidates are (1) a bug in Python, (2) a difference in memory layout which caused buggy code to work correct in 2.5 nonetheless or (3) a timing difference, with the same effect.
Oh yes, if you're on Windows and using the prebuilt dll it could also be caused by runtime library differences, I think 2.5 was built with VS2003 and 2.6 with VS2005.
You'll need to provide a bit more detail if you want more help (OS and version, how you built Python and your app, is your code in an extension module or embedding Python, how does it crash, did you get a stack trace, etc)
