You got the version numbers and years mixed up. The official Windows
builds of Python 2.4 and 2.5 are build with VC 7.1 aka VS 2003. Starting
with Python 2.6 and 3.0 VC 9 aka VS 2008 are used. Visual Studio 2005
(VC 8) is not used for any official build.

You can use MinGW32 to build Windows binaries for most Python versions
though.
