  As a follow-up to my previous mail to the list: I've tried to use 
Tim's "new" 0,6b module and it seems to work OK...

Hi!!

Just wanted to telll you that dowloading the 0.6b module, copying on top 
of wmi.py and re-running "python make install" seems to have solved the 
problems.

At least, "import wmi" doesn't bomb now. Will give it a whirl, to see if 
all seems to be OK.

Just my 0,002
