The 2.4 python.org installer installs msvcr71.dll on the target system.

If someone uses py2exe or a similar tool to create a frozen application, is he allowed to redistribute this msvcr71.dll to other users together with his application or not, even if he doesn't own MSVC?

How about statically compiling the code? Then you do not need to distribute the runtime library. It should not make a big difference for the rather large file python24.dll Kind regards, Alexander
