Get windows username

Short question:

Is there a way to get the windows-account username at which a visitor is viewing your website (like Environment.Username in C#), and if so, how?
I doubt it, I did a search on google but didn't find any clear answers... And, if it's not possible in php, is it in some other language that can be used on webpages?

Thanks in advance

In any case, this would have to be a client-side scripting language.
AFAIK neither JavaScript nor ActionScript allow for this kind of thing.
Besides, I wouldn't really be happy if they did...
