If a windows machine's current user's path to his/hers user directory contains cyrillic symbols (or maybe any non-ascii symbols) like a c:\Documents and Settings\Настя, then all ide modules (and demo modules too) crush during their launching with traceback of following kind (depends on module):
Traceback (most recent call last):

sqlite3.OperationalError: unable to open database file
As far as i can understand, main reason of such crashes is a wrong encoding given by dabo.fileSystemEncoding.
In line 67 of dbSQLite module: pth = pth.decode(dabo.fileSystemEncoding).encode("utf-8"),
valid unicode cyrillic letters in ptn variable is replaced by mess of foolish symbols.
After commenting this line all modules run correctly.
And sorry for my english, it's not very good, i know.
