Not with javascript .. not that I am aware of. Now an activex control is a different story. > When I double-clicked a folder I noticed that I got a warning message > about running a system command.

It's the same thing as opening a browser on your computer and typing c:\ in the address bar. If you doubleclick an executable in there, it will run just as if you were doing it through windows explorer. or .. open "my computer" and type a web site address in the navigation bar ... windows and browsers are pretty much interchangable.
