Accessing Other Windows

Is it possible in JavaScript (or any other language) to access the objects in a browser that is NOT related to the calling window? In other words, how can a web page access the contents of another browser that is not its parent or child?

I think the answer is "you can't", as it sounds like a definite security issue, but I need some sort of evidence or explanation.

If it is possible, how?
