The following note in Python-2.2.2/Tools/freeze/README does not sound too good.

A warning about shared library modules
--------------------------------------

When your Python installation uses shared library modules such as
_tkinter.pyd, these will not be incorporated in the frozen program.
  Again, the frozen program will work when you test it, but it won't
  work when you ship it to a site without a Python installation.

I tried to freeze Demo/initialize.py but did not succeed.

Ciao, Michael.
