Hah! They got'ya too?! :-)
About Mozilla "location" object:
It's is important to mention that it requires UniversalBrowserWrite
privilege which has to be granted by user in the popup dialog box. And
this popup dialog will appear only for a local file. For server-side
files dialog will appear only if the HTML page is in a jar file signed
with a valid certificate from a valid certificate authority.

That may save some OP's precious time ;-)
Goind out of the sandbox we can get an equivalent for IE either using
WScript.Shell sidewalk with the same security limitations.
So the original answer remains correct: no, you cannot do it from
JavaScript :-(
