Were you perhaps looking for a .exe file to install BeautifulSoup?
It's quite plausible that a windows user like you might be dazzled at
the idea of a .tar.gz.

I suggest just using "pip install beautifulsoup4" at a command prompt.
See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12228102/how-to-install-beautiful-soup-4-with-python-2-7-on-windows
for explanations -- there are links for things you need to know.

But basically, use BeautifulSoup. It does what you need.
