When I open my Python file through cygwin it recongnizes a module that I installed recently(PyCrypto) but when I open Python IDLE and then click on Run Module, it says that PyCrypto wasnt installed. Whats wrong?

Thanks for the help.

What the IDLE shell window says in beginning? CYGWIN & gcc?

It says Python Shell. Python 2.7.2 on win32

That is not cygwin but regular Python, which has not the module installed. Idle of Cygwin works through xwindow, after setting the DISPLAY variable correctly by typing idle at Cygwin command line.
