Works ok in python 2.6 (that is in progress of being integrated in xbmc)

In current xbmc (using python 2.4) oauth launches a text based browser, see 
screenshot :)

narrowed the problem down to webbrowser module, tested with a never version of 
it and
then it works, will investigate further, need to finnish the tag stuff first.

We have the same issue (but different) on xbox, it simply does not have a web 
browser 
:)
I plan to offer the OAuth process using the an external link, check issue #32. 
The 
thing with 2.6 is that I don't know how to implement it on Windows.
