Chris,

    No, you can not grant permissions that you do not have with this. If
the code you are running has permissions to access a website, then you can
call Assert on the permission to prevent stack walks asking for that
permission from going further up (the Assert will fail if you try and assert
a permission you don't have access to). Additionally, if you have code
running that you don't trust, then you can call Deny to deny the permission.
