To tell the truth, you are wrong.
Unfortunately, you are wrong in practice.
Netscape 4.5 refuses many operations on URL! Such as, loading images and
opening streams. It allows only reading audio files.

I feels each browsers has its own rules and security handles and the final
results is a jungle!

IE 4.0 allows all things, but we know MSoft philosophy! Think about activeX!

Hotjava seems in the middle...

Well I have been looking for hidden options inside browsers to switch off
some security restrictions, but hitherto I found nothing.
