That's some funky sh*t!  I've never seen that behavior, but I'm limited to
one platform (GNU/Linux).  What's your platform and Python version?

Anyway, check http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-webbrowser.html
(URL from memory...) for what it's supposed to do.

I've read your previous message, btw, but I have no time at the moment.
Will try to get a reply out tonight.

Peace,
  Kalle
