If you append "window.location = " and ';' to your pattern, it would
be more clear to detect it.

r'window.location = "(.*?)";'

... I have used this and it gave me ...
>>> data = """ <html>
... ""some code""
... function reportAbuse() {
...     var windowname="abuse";
...     var url="/abuse.jsp?link=" + "http://www.2shared.com/file/
1716611/e2000f22/Jadeed_Mlak14.html";
...     OpenWindow =
...
window.open(url,windowname,'toolbar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=500,height=500,left=50,top=50');
...     OpenWindow.focus();
...   }
...   function startDownload(){
...     window.location = "http://www.2shared.com/download/1716611/
e2000f22/Jadeed_Mlak14.wmv?tsid=20070803-164051-9d637d11";
...     //document.downloadForm.submit();
...   }
...   </script>
... </head>
... </html>"""
>>> re.findall(r'window.location = "(.*?)";', data)
['http://www.2shared.com/download/1716611/e2000f22/Jadeed_Mlak14.wmv?
tsid=20070803-164051-9d637d11']
>>> print 'It works! :-)'
It works! :-)
>>>

Happy coding
