py2exe

Hello all. I am following the the tutorial at http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/Tutorial to figure out how to use py2exe. I get down to step 3 where you are suppose to run the command:

python setup.py py2exe

I do that and then I get this error:

'python' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I have python 2.4 installed on my machine. any idea's? I am sure it is something simple.
