Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment:

I was to suggest to use the PATHEXT variable instead of a hardcoded list of 
extensions, 
but does all this work at all?

For example, I added a "opera.bat" in my current directory.
a browser named 'opera' was registered, but it did not start!

>>> webbrowser.get('opera').open('http://www.google.com')
False

And indeed, the subprocess module does not start .bat files unless "shell=True" 
is given.
