thx for your help

you need python 2.6 to have it working

[Garreth]

If it's not a problem, you can install python 2.7.2 (from my experience on python 2.7 the bot takes MUCH less memory than on 2.6). But yes, your problem is connected with old python version.

Ok its running now

thx a lot, i got some help from a friend... he installed 2.6 for me (it was a bit tricky)

but maybe update the readme :

### Requirements

1. Python 2.4+ - http://www.python.org 

this is in the readme from the NEW bot

cya around

[Garreth]

Sure, 2.6 is good enough:) However I hate old linux distros where installing newer python is pain in the ...., now I'm using Arch Linux on a server, and installing newest python is done by entering command pacman -S python2 <enter>
