"python25.bat" or "python25.cmd" are acceptable names for that file.

Assuming you have a command window, if you enter the command,
     C:\WhereEver> echo %path%
you will see a semicolon-separated list of directories.  Put the
file in any of the directories on that list.  You should then be
able to use the command:
     C:\WhereEver> python25 <whatever>

Personally, I would use the name "python25.cmd", but that may just be
superstition on my part about the difference between .bat and .cmd
files.
