Summary: Browse PythonPath fails

Initial Comment:
With Python 2.5.2 and PyWin 2.5.2, both installed cleanly on a new XP SP2 machine, everything works as before except Browse PythonPath on the PyWin Tools menu, which gives the following error.  (Edit Python Path produces a blank screen also.)

>>> Failed to execute command:
from pywin.tools import browseProjects;browseProjects.Browse()
