The Python installer from python.org does NOT add .py and .pyw to PATHEXT;  
the ActivePython one does.

I suggest you read the documentation for the Python version you're using,  
not any other at random...
http://docs.python.org/3.1/library/tkinter.html#a-simple-hello-world-program
clearly says "tkinter" instead of "Tkinter"

Read in the tutorial the section about packages. tkinter is a package, not  
a module.
