_except_handler4_common

"The procedure entry point _except_handler4_common could not be located in the dynamic link library msvcrt.dll"

The error above occurs when running the latests version of Builds when trying to download stuff.

The problem

The file mswsock.dll is included in the binary distribution of Builds when it should not. This is happening because we now are building Builds from a Vista machine, not from a Windows XP. For some unknown reason py2exe adds the file witch is not compatible with XP systems.

The solution

Remove mswsock.dll from the distribution.
