Can't reproduce, apart from misplacing (back)slashes, not sure what it
can be. :( Just tried under winXP, from 1.59 source + patch above,
(even) with python 2.6. After that experiment I renamed the web2py dir
to "web py" (note the whitespace) and it worked identically. Note that
the we both mistyped the marker -> open("c:\\marker"... is the correct
form).
My tried and true crontab under windows:

applications\examples\cron\vazeg.py
*/1 * * * * root *applications\examples
\cron\vazeg.py
*/1 * * * * root *applications/examples/
