I turned on the AdminPrivilegesRequired flag in the installer because of a bug report that if a non-admin does an install and MSVCIRT.dll doesn't already exist it is installed, but MSVCRT.dll is *not* upgrade because the installer doesn't have the priviledges to do so. You end up with a version mismatch in these two files which can causes lot of problems on some systems.
I've been told that these files must be installed to the system dir otherwise they won't be loaded properly.
Last I checked Python only installs MSVCRT.dll so I have to update both since I need both.
If any of the above are not true then please let me know, and if possible, please supply a snippet for the InnoSetup script that does the Right Thing for all windows platforms.

well, i am just a simple cave man programmer. i dont understand all your fancy 'installers' and 'msvcrt.dll' and administrator flags. but there is one thing i do know.
i can just copy the 'wxpython' directory from c:\python22\Lib\site-packages\
on a machine where wxpython has been installed, and put that
into the c:\python22\Lib\site-packages directory onto the machine that doesnt allow administrator login. and a lot of the demos seem to work ok.
i have done this with win98se and also win2000
