If the Enthought Python installer installed CPython to C:/Python27, then 
I would expect a) that they might put the 'included packages' in 
site-packages, and b) that putting a module/package there would work. 
However, maybe they do something non-standard in the site module, 
including disabling site-packages.

Try
 >>> import sys; sys.path
to see if sys.path includes site-packages and what it does include.

If you put a directory in site-packages, make sure it has an __init__.py 
file.
