Found the solution... and it's an easy fix for the user. The user needs
to bring up the Security tab in the IE options menu, click on "Local
Intranet", then just add our web site using the "Sites" button. Don't
know why this works, but it does. No problem writing to disk after doing
this.
Fortunately, it's easy for the revlet to detect this problem as soon as
it starts up, simply by attempting to write and retrieve a file to the
users computer. The solution can then be explained.
Richard... I agree with you about the horrendous warning that a revlet
brings up. The only solution we know is to explain the warning to the
user in advance. That should draw most of them in to proceeding. Of
course, in our case, the user has some familiarity with our company. If
they didn't, that warning message might still scare many away, even
after explaining to them it's safe to proceed.

Hi Richard,
It's not a practical solution for this app. The app is displaying
personal video data of the user (sports videos... golf, baseball,
tennis swings, etc.). The user needs to be able to bring these videos
up immediately... not have to wait for each to be downloaded each time
the user wants to view one. I don't see any way around the need for
local storage.

I'd really like to hear from Revolution management as to when this will
be fixed. The usefulness of revlets is severely limited if you can't
use
them to save any data to disk under Internet Explorer. I may be missing
some solution to this, but I can't find it.
Would it be at all possible to store that data on the server like any
other web app would do?
The biggest obstacle to adoption of the RevWeb plugin is the truly
frightening warning dialog which is absolutely necessary when a
server-based component attempts to write anything it wants to a
user's local drive:

It simplifies your user's experience, and benefits the Rev community
as a whole, to use server storage wherever possible.
