Security issue discovered in Python

See: https://secunia.com/advisories/56234/

How dangerous is this for current versions of Electrum?

The issue has been fixed in 2.7.6.

What version of Python is being used to build the Windows version?

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

Well if it's going to affect anything it will be long running server processes not client apps like Electrum.
