Ouch.  This looks like: http://bugs.python.org/issue1704156

I'm at a loss as to why this would be happening on Windows 2003 and not 
Windows XP, but there we are.

Try renaming the file backup.chex and see if that fixes things for you. 
  If so, you can permanently fix this particular problem (after 
restarting) by going to:

Tools > Automatically Restore from Backup

and unchecking Enabled.

Sincerely,
Jeffrey
