Yes, you can use py2exe on Windows, and py2app on Mac. I don't know offhand of a similar tool for linux.

You may like to try the official tutorial - it isn't necessarily the best tutorial, but it is the most comprehensive I am aware of.

Best of luck!
I went to http://www.py2exe.org, but I'm unsure which one to download.

Thanks.

"Download py2exe from SourceForge" is probably a good bet....

If your using another OS than Windows try searching for CX_Freeze which is platform independant.
