"access is denied" for local CD

I have a simple HTML page which uses Javascript window.open to open another
HTML page in a sub-directory. This works just find on my hard disk but when
I put it onto a CD-R I get an "access is denied" error when attempting to
execute the window.open. Firefox works just fine with this so I guess this
has something to do with IE security. I get the same behavior from both IE
7 and 6. Just what is happening here? How can I get around it?

In IE go to Tools...Internet Options...Advanced tab, scroll down to the
Security section, put a checkmark besides the "Allow active content from CDs
to run on My Computer", click Apply, click Okay.

I'm afraid that isn't the problem. Its already checked when I get this
behavior. But thanks anyway.
