Opening file from web site in JavaScript

Question

I have some JavaScript I've written (Windows PC platform with PS CS3) that opens a legal notice (jpg file) which runs from the File | Scripts menu and places the legal notice jpg on the bottom of the currently open Photoshop document. It opens and works well when the jpg file is on the local drive (c:) or network (//MachineName) but won't open if I try to open it from a web site (see example below). I'm getting "Error 12233: Expected a reference to an existing File/Folder". Is there any work around for this?
This works...
// Open legal notice document
var legalDoc = open(File("C:/Droke/EpLegalNotice/EpLegalNotice_US_Black.jpg"))
This doesn't work (and I know the file is there because I can paste the following URL into the browser and it displays the image)...
// Open legal notice document
var legalDoc = open(File("http://www.somesite.com/EpLegalNotice/EpLegalNotice_US_Black.jpg"))

There must be something else in these sites, and yet, you can
get SWF from any site,
even the most tricky one but it require skills which
obviously you don't have because
if you did you would know that AC_RunActiveContent.js does
not hide SWF files.
It's purposes is for something totally different.
