The pythonw.exe may not have the rights to access network resources.
Have you set a default timeout for sockets?

import socket
socket.setdefaulttimeout(10) # 10 seconds

A pyw Python doesn't have stdout, stderr or stdin. Any attempt to write
to them (e.g. print statement, default exception logger) can cause an
exception.
