You should add -m before easy_install
for example:

python -m easy_install C:UsersProssercDownloadsQSTK-0.2.6-py2.7.egg

How about if you unpack the .egg (its just a .zip in disguise), then cd into it and run python setup.py install? Will that run fine and will you then be able to import your module?

Im saying this because if the .egg file does get put under site-packages as appropriate but youre still not able to import, this might be a problem in the code itself.

I have finally found another place to download this from with a package that works: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/QSTK/0.2.6 has a QSTK-0.2.6.tar.gz option to build it from the source code.

Unzipping this (then again once down to the .tar), I could find the setup.py file and install by going to the directory with the setup file and running:

python setup.py install
