For me it returns: ~ 
That is, if I press win-logo in a writable buffer, it prints a ~ and
beeps my terminal. If the buffer is not writable it simply beeps.

So trying by hand, M-x global-set-key NET <virology> NET
puts this in my mini buffer:

Set key ESC [ 2 5 to command: ~ 

I deleted the ~ and typed other-window and then did the 
ESC ESC stuff you mentioned. to get:

Redo: (global-set-key "^[[25" (quote other-window))

So i have tried in my .mics:
(global-set-key "^[[25" (quote other-window))
and
(global-set-key "^[[25" 'other-window)

And now it does switch windows but prints the tilde also :-\

How can get rid of the tilde? 

Thanks for the help!
