Are you using IDLE? THe latest versions of IDLE issue a warning of 
this type.

What happens if you just run your program from the OS commamd line?

If its not in IDLE then it will depend on what your program is doing.

Can you post the error message? And if its not too long the code too?

It saves us from guessing... :-)
