      I bet a ton of virus/trojan/password_steale r writers would love to be able to
      do that.

      The answer is no, not in any type of default security settings.

          Not by default, but there is an application / script which will allow
          you to do this. I ran across it a long time ago at
          http://www.virtualplastic.net/ , but can't remember what it was called.
          Have a look around there & I'm sure you'll run across it sooner or later.
