Answer 1

You may experience a "Permission denied" error, which means that the browser will not let script execute outside the "sandbox". Try solving the issue by changing a security setting in the browser:

• Internet Options, Advanced, Security:
• "Allow Active Content to run in files on My Computer"

The above is for IE, but most browsers have similar options.
