[issue17290] pythonw - loading cursor bug when launching scripts

[netrick]

netrick added the comment:

My OS is Windows XP so it may be only XP related. So, python 3.3 and my testing:

1) pythonw app.pyw - no bug
2) python app.pyw - no bug
3) pyw app.pyw - no bug
4) py app.pyw - no bug
5) double click on app.pyw - BUG

Tested on 2 different computers with exactly the same results. Both windows xp. Now I'm a little bit lost as running directly "pyw app.pyw" doesn't cause the bug.

However I read that the launcher assigns .pyw files in windows to some .bat script instead of pure pyw.exe. How can we check it? We need to dig into what exactly is started when .pyw script is run through double click.
