In addition to the googling, I talked to the people on the Windows IRC channel at freenode [webchat.freenode.net/?channels=windows] but they too were unable to find a problem . They said that the installer package was corrupted and that I should contact support. > I have also tried using other versions python installers but they return the same error. The problem isn't with the installer, but with Windows. A quick google search reveals that deleting (rename for backup purposes) the following directory should help: C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Crypto\RSA I usually would rename it to something like RSA.corrupted. Then after things were working again, I'd delete it.
