I too seem to have experienced this same problem. I am running Windows Vista. After choosing to shut down my computer and restart without cleanly shutting down IDLE I got a "socket error" - socket error:connection refused when I next tried to launch IDLE. After pressing OK I got another message: "IDLE's subprocess didn't make a connection. Either IDLE can't start a subprocess or personal firewall software is blocking the connection" After a search through the web I simply ran the python-6.2.3.msi file again and chose to "repair" Python 2.6.3 - this has solved the problem. Hope this helps.
