Where do I find the Python Crypto package when installing Paramiko on windows?

Question

I am trying to SFTP from Python running on windows and installed Paramiko as was recommended here. Unfortunately, it asks for Crypto.Util.randpool so I need to install the Crypto package. I found RPMS for Linux, but can't find anything or source code for windows.

The readme for Paramiko states: pycrypto compiled for Win32 can be downloaded from the HashTar homepage: http://nitace.bsd.uchicago.edu:8080/hashtar.

Unfortunately, that link does not work. Neither does the link to given from PCrypto's homepage.

Any idea how to overcome this?
