Thanks for your answer Dario.

I'm now able to install pip.

I tested pip and could install
pygments and SOAPpy

I also seem to be able to install virtualenv with pip, though it reports 
some warnings:

When trying to create a vritualenv
with

virtualenv.exe targetdir

I get a new error this time.

the target directory is already created and some files exist already.
However scripts like 'activate.bat' are still missing.

I think the important error line is
> DistributionNotFound: setuptools>=0.6c11


with 'pip freeze' I see:
distribute==0.6.28
an alphabetic comparison of the versions would indicate, that my 
distribute version is too old :-(

I can also paste the full error log, but I think this is the line, that 
counts.
