It looks like the issue is with the resources being hosted externally 

running pip install -v -v -v --upgrade pefile will output a number of warnings.

Skipping http://pefile.googlecode.com/files/pefile-1.2.10-139.tar.gz (from 
https://pypi.python.org/simple/pefile/) because it is externally hosted.

You can bypass this by using the arguments "--allow-external pefile 
--allow-unverified pefile"  

Example: sudo pip install --allow-external pefile --allow-unverified pefile 
pefile

On a side note since you are installing from an externally hosted & unverified 
source, things could go horribly wrong, but you'll have the latest package.
