You can't.

Or at least not on most configured windows boxes and perhaps not on any of them.

You could do it with an activex component but downloading and running that would also be something that IE would alert the user to.

Not to mention that turning off a security setting is a sure way to really anger your clients not to mention the possibility that they might sue you.
