ImportError: No module named pythoncom

You are missing the pythoncom package. It comes with ActivePython but you can get it separately on GitHub (previously on SourceForge) as part of pywin32.

You can also simply use:

pip install pywin32

You should be using pip to install packages, since it gives you uninstall capabilities.

Also, look into virtualenv. It works well with pip and gives you a sandbox so you can explore new stuff without accidentally hosing your system-wide install.

If you're on windows you probably want the pywin32 library, which includes pythoncom and a whole lot of other stuff that is pretty standard.
