Summary: Shutdown of IDLE blows up

Initial Comment:
When I shut down IDLE on Windows 2000 Professional 
running Python 2.2.1 I get a popup with "TclNotifier: 
pythonw.exe - Application Error" in the name bar 
and "The instruction at "0x77fcb144" referenced memory 
at "0x00b3300010". The memory could not be "read"."  
in the message box.

I have a Norton AntiVirus 2001.  When I shut it down, IDLE 
then works fine.  When I turn it back on, IDLE still works 
fine.  Amazing.

I'm sure you see this, and it's probably a bug somewhere, but 
nobody else is seeing this. We tested IDLE and Python 2.2.1 
on Windows 2000 and we don't see this here. So I doubt 
you're going to have much luck getting this fixed.

Do you have a virus detector installed? Try turning it off.
