Great.

But -- didn't you get the same behavior *before* installing python 3.0?
when python2.5 started from the "run" dialog box, didn't it get the same
addition to the PATH environment variable?

Martin: Could the msi installer remove the key named
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\MICROSOFT\Windows\CURRENTVERSION\App
Paths\python.exe\Path"
when it is present? Or is this just a "Won't fix" issue?
