1. If I can view the source in IE, shouldn't I be able to view the

Not in cases analologous to what would happen during a "cross-site" scripting attack.
2. Why does placing an entry in my hosts file make my "access denied"
problems go away?
Cross-site scripting is when when scripts from one site try to access
content from another. Today's browsers prevent this from
happening. Watir runs into to the same barriers when you navigate from
a page hosted from one site to a frame hosted by another. Your hosts
file change makes all these frames & pages come from a single site.
It would be great if someone on this list would put together a wiki page describing this problem.
