I need both 2.7 and 3.3. And apparently, py.exe does not work the way it 
should be.

I would happily reinstall 3.3 to solve the problem, but before I do that 
I would like to check all other related settings. So that after I 
reinstall 3.3, I will exactly know what was happening.

It might be a good idea to change the installer of the 2.x series to 
detect if 3.x is already installed, and handle assignments of py and pyw 
files gracefully.
