I get a photo of a friend from Indonesia. Upon clicking this photos a dialong box popped up and several entries were "automatically written" in a milisecond and then the box closed. Hence, now any time I want to open a photo file and any type a box opens up and closes in a heartbeat and then nothing opens. I used a high speed video camera and took a
screen shot" and then watched it in slow motion. The box said,

"Error processing line 3 of C:\Program Files (x86)Gimpshop\Python\lib\images\pygtk.pth:

So, I am not a programmer, far from it, and I would like to know what this "thing" is nd how to remove it from my computer. I feel it is up so no good, perhaps. Thanks for your help.
It looks like it's having an issue with the name: 'C-GNSQ #588 panel'
I would be very suspicious of a file with a name like this on windows.

perhaps isolate it, and open with a file dump program to see if you can figure out contents before deleting.
