Mark -- does this happen only if you double-click or also if you run the 
file from the command line? By that I mean somthing like:

c:\users\tim> myfile.py

I ask because the Shell/Explorer (the program handling the double-click) 
has its own association mechanism. Usually it matches the settings you 
list above, but it doesn't have to.
