+
+Download pycrypto: 
+http://ftp.dlitz.net/pub/dlitz/crypto/pycrypto/pycrypto-2.4.tar.gz
+
+Check the SHA-256 hash: 
+{{{C:\> hashdeep -c sha256 pycrypto-2.4.tar.gz}}}
+
+Extract pycrypto-2.4.tar.gz with 7-zip.
+
+Download Python 2.6 and install it. 
+http://www.python.org
+
+Add {{{c:\python26}}} and {{{c:\python26\scripts}}} to your PATH
+
+== Compile and build the binary eggs ==
+
+Run MingW Shell from start menu, cd to pycrypto-2.4 directory and start the compilation:
+{{{ python build --compile=mingw32}}}
+
+Build the egg (will be placed in the \dist subdirectory:
+{{{ python -c "import setuptools; execfile('setup.py')" bdist_egg}}}
+
+== Test the build ==
+
+Run pycrypto test suite: 
+{{{ python setup.py test}}}
+
+Download Tahoe-LAFS https://tahoe-lafs.org/source/tahoe-lafs/releases/allmydata-tahoe-1.9.0.zip
+
+Extract it to a short path without spaces (e.g. C:\). Run the test suite:
+{{{c:\> python setup.py test}}}

+
+Remove {{{c:\python26}}} and {{{c:\python26\scripts}}} from your PATH.
+Add {{{c:\python27}}} and {{{c:\python27\scripts}}} to your PATH
+
+Compile and test pycrypto-24 in the same way as for Python 2.6.
