I believe thats done by searching the Windows registry.
You can use the Win32 API or the WSH API to do that,
but I don't know which keys you should look under.
Try MSDN...

To access the Win32/WSH API you can use ctypes (now part of the
standard library in 2.5 I think) or Mark Hammond's winall package.
