You'll have to get a program that does it, Python can't compile Windows binaries.

 

Why do you need a .exe? Can't you just run the script with the Python interpreter?

 

You might find these helpful, but there isn't one for Python 3.3

I don't know of any others, sorry.

 

EDIT: I guess you can do it natively in Python 3.3
