The system is a Windows XP machine with a custom web-server that handles
CGI.
The log files are created in c:\ and certainly the whole world has
access to it :)

Well, there is no traceback. Nothing. If you tell me how to get one, I
could do it.

All I have done is installed  Quixote in c:\quixote by unzipping.
copied demo.cgi to cgi-bin of the webserver.

modified demo.cgi to add
sys.path.append('C:\\')

and accessed the demo.cgi using a browser.

If there is anything in particular you want to know?
I am using Quixote 0.6.1 and Python 2.3
