Just reaffirmed my original finding.  I noticed I had my Airport on 
unnecessarily, as I was cabled in.  After hitting the "login" button at PayPal, 
I turned Airport off while I waited for the page to load.  IMMEDIATELY, Safari 
bitched that file://...Resources/ could not be opened because it was a 
directory.

So your failure more may be different, but mine is confirmed.
