I was mucking around attempting to get WConio working and so had an
installation for both python 2.5 and 2.6 at the same time. After I
uninstalled python 2.5 windows somehow stopped associating .py files
with python.

That's not a bug. When you installed 2.5, you had defined that files are
associated with 2.5. When you uninstalled 2.5, those associations were
removed. In "Add and Remove Programs", find 2.6, and run a "Repair"
installation to get the files associated with 2.6.
