The only way to get around this is to either use Firefox, or install a web server that will send an Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * header.
You can also run Chrome with --disable-web-security:
--disable-web-security
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-web-security --user-data-dir=C:\HighwayToTheDangerChrome
