FileVersion and ProductVersion returning the same values

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download an EXE where the file version is different from the product 
version. (I'm using CurrPorts, as provided by NirSoft.)
2. Run the script to retrieve FileVersion and ProductVersion information.

What is the expected output?

FileVersion: 2.1.0.0
ProductVersion: 2.10

What do you see instead?

FileVersion: 2.10
ProductVersion: 2.10

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Python: 2.7.5
Version: 1.2.10-139
OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Please provide any additional information below.

The code:

import pefile

pe = pefile.PE(r"C:\Path\To\File\cports.exe")
print pe.FileInfo[0].StringTable[0].entries['FileVersion']
print pe.FileInfo[0].StringTable[0].entries['ProductVersion']

Meanwhile, I follow the code here, and I get both file and product returning 
the file info and NOT the product info:

ersion

So I suppose between the two, I'll get the correct info?
