[Wtr-general] Handling (Browser Security Driven?) Modal Dialog

[Sun]

Further information -- If I modify it to be:

modal = ie.modal_dialog(:title, "Internet Explorer") 
puts(modal.to_s)
modal.button(:value, "Yes").click

The result is, when executed in a command window, the following:
C:\Documents and Settings\...\freeride>ruby tst26.rb
## Beginning of test: Google search

Step 1: go to the test site: http://www.google.com
  Action: entered http://www.google.com in the address bar.
Step 2: enter 'pickaxe' in the search text field
  Action: entered pickaxe in the search field
Step 3: click the 'Google Search' button
  Action: clicked the Google Search button.
c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1065/./watir/waiter.rb:55:in `wait_until': Timed out after 2.022 seconds. (Watir::Exception::TimeOutException)
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1065/./watir.rb:210:in `until_with_timeout'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1065/./watir.rb:2613:in `locate'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1065/./watir.rb:2648:in `initialize'
        from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1065/./watir.rb:450:in `modal_dialog'
        from tst26.rb:49

Notice that neither the "puts(modal.to_s)" is executed neither is anything else in the script is executed after it.

So...what is wrong? (I am pretty new to ruby and watir but...this shouldn't be this difficult, this is the basic script from the watir user guide after all with just an attempt to click through the security popup!)
