Python errors when saving anim from Blender

Hi

I have Blender installed and running (I make sculpties with it with no problems) but I can't get it to save the bvh files. I am using this setup:

http://tentacolor.com/sl-animation-for-blender-newbs/getting-set-up/

Python is installed too, and it is running before I start blender.

When I try to run the script that is supposed to save the bvh I get an error message "Python script error check console". The consoles say the following:

Blender:

Compiled with Python version 2.5.2.
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback
Checking for installed Python... No installed Python found.
Only built-in modules are available. Some scripts may not run.
Continuing happily.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "basic_exporter.py", line 207, in <module>
ImportError: No module named pickle

Python:
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67517, Dec 4 2008, 16:51:00) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>


I have no idea what Python even is, nor what a pickle is supposed to be. I just want this to work. Is there anyone who can help? Thank you!

I had a similar error report when I first used Blender, found that I had installed the latest version of Python instead of the one Blender was expecting - according to the error, that would be 2.5.2 (or 2.5.4) [http://www.python.org/download/releases/2.5.2/] instead of the 2.6 you're running.
Hope this helps :)
