> Ulf, each issue should be in a separate bug, so please open a new bug for  
> your problem with Python 2.4.3.  This one is for Python 2.4.2, and is fixed.

Installing python-2.4.3.msi from www.python.org works only partly:

* The file chooser for the installation directory is not accessible
 * The installation is not complete; for example, the file pythonw.exe is 
   missing. However, calling the installation program a second time and
   choosing "Repair" leads to a working installation.
 * when choosing a different directory by manually typing the desired path in   
   the dialog, an empty directory is created within the specified path. 
   Python is, however, installed in the predefined c:\Python24.

Find logs of the first and second installation run in the attachments. If you
need more information, please let me know!
All the best, Ulf
