paramiko installation problem

[D. Xenakis]

Im having problems using paramiko after installation on my Win7 64bit system.
I can see both paramiko and pycrypto being "there" installed via pip list:

I have tried so many different ways but in the end im always getting the same error when trying to import paramiko:
(i can import Crypto with no problems)

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#0>", line 1, in <module>
import paramiko
File "C:\Python33\lib\site-packages\paramiko\__init__.py", line 64, in <module>
from transport import SecurityOptions, Transport
ImportError: No module named 'transport'

Please can you help?
thx

then if i type:
and then again..
returns:

then if i type:
i get this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#3>", line 1, in <module>

File "C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages\paramiko\transport.py", line 296
except socket.error, e:

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

----------------------------------------------
when i close and reopen IDLE, then 'C:\\Python33\\Lib\\site-packages\\paramiko' is getting deleted.

If my problem from the first post above has to do something with the path, then what exactly should i do?

I would also like to ask here something extra..

in system enviroment variables my path contains the following things:

C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages\PyQt5;C:\Python33\Scripts\;C:\Python33\;C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Windows Live;C:\Python33\Lib\site-packages\paramiko;C:\ProgramFiles (x86)\Intel\iCLS Client\;C:\Program Files\Intel\iCLS Client\;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management EngineComponents\DAL;C:\Program Files\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\DAL;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Management Engine Components\IPT;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\OpenCL SDK\2.0\bin\x86;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\OpenCL SDK\2.0\bin\x64;C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files\NEST;C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Live\Shared

so what exactly is the difference between this path and the above.?

A huge THANKS for the one who will find the courage to answer to this newbie !

That syntax is supported in Python 2. In Python 3 it would be:

except socket.error as e:

I don't think that paramiko supports Python 3 (yet?).

Wow thats bad news. Any workaround?

What im trying to succeed here is create one SSH tunnel, so that i can connect from a python script running on my pc, to a remote MySQL database running on my Host and id like to stick with Python 3.3 .
Any thoughts?
