[ale] Permission Denied to run my own stuff

I have a script in my user directory (RH6), and I wrote it, and I own it,
and it has executable permission.  When I try to run it, it says
"./myscript: Permission denied".  What might be causing this??  I get the
same thing trying to run the a.out from a C program I just compiled.  Even
as root I get this message trying to run programs that are in the user
directory, until I copy the file so root owns it and THEN chmod +x and run
it.  Man what a pain.
