RE: IE, how to detect in which zone scripts are executed?

This would be a useful tool.  Is there a way to tell what zone IE is using
when it runs scripts in pages?  For instance,
if I put the following in a .htm file and save to my desktop and attempt to
run.  It throws a permission denied error on the objShell.Help() line.
Shouldn't this be running in the local zone and thus be able to create and
use the shell object?  Can someone tell me why this fails?  TIA

<script language="jscript">
var objShell = new ActiveXObject("Shell.Application");
objShell.Help();
</script>

Hi,

i would like to know from all ie auditing folks if there is a simple way to
understand in which zone a scripts (vbscript,jscript,hta) are executed.

I can't find online any resource about that.
