It should be in the same directory as python25.dll; you don't have to use  
windows\system32 if you copy python25.dll to your application directory.

"Python home" means the directory where Python is installed, from which  
the rest of the directories are derived. It should have a lib directory  
with an os.py file inside, and so on...
I don't have a PYTHONHOME environment variable, nor a PYTHONPATH (except  
for this testing).
