I have Windows XP with Live OneCare as protection. Python 3 IDLE won't
start because of sub-process issues while Python 2.5.2 IDLE does start
without any problem.

Can you please be more specific what precise version you have been trying?

[dah]

The version of Python whose IDLE doesn't work have been installed using the
following installer package, Python-3.0rc1.msi, that I have downloaded from
your site. I have also installed another version with the Python-2.5.2.msi
installer. This one work fine with the only warning that the firewall may
prompt a warning because of calls made to some sub processes. Thanks.

IDLE won't start with 3.0rc1 because of issue bpo-3628.
This has been corrected in r66518.
