D'Oh!

def go10():
    #works with win xp
    import ClientCookie
    c = ClientCookie.MSIECookieJar(delayload=1)
    c.load_from_registry(username='mcarter') #only need username for win9x
    opener = ClientCookie.build_opener(ClientCookie.HTTPCookieProcessor(c))

    url = 'http://businessplus.hemscott.net/corp/crp03733.htm'
    response = opener.open(url)

    print response.info()  # headers
    print response.read()  # body


All of this is explained in the web page, though.  [attempts to looks
at web page] Well, it would be if the link weren't broken or I could
log in to my SF account to fix it... Sigh.

BTW, if you want to use ClientCookie.urlopen rather than opener.open,
you can call ClientCookie.install_opener(opener) to install a global
opener, just as you would with urllib2.
