I have a theory. Can you try in a folder with no spaces in the pathname and report back?

What's weird is that sometimes I get the ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED error, and sometimes I don't, and I don't know how to reproduce it. Whether there are spaces in the pathname or not makes no difference. I did find a working setup however:
Here's a summary of my tests, all run in Chrome:
Note: By inline script I mean placing
<script> document.write('<script src="http://' + (location.host || 'localhost').split(':')[0] + ':35729/livereload.js?snipver=1"></' + 'script>') </script>
before the </body> tag.
- Using
file:///and inline script: Doesn't work - Using
http-serverand inline script: Doesn't work - Using
file:///andlivereload .: Doesn't work - Using
http-serverandlivereload .: This actually worked!
From this it seems that using either file:/// instead of a server on localhost or the inline script instead of the global livereload command cause the livereload setup to fail.
I'm thinking the file:/// failure has something to do with
Only Google Chrome supports viewing file:/// URLS, and you have to specifically enable it.
that's mentioned in the documentation. I'm guessing I don't have it enabled (?) and a quick google search doesn't yield anything. Does the Chrome extension need to be used for file:/// to work? Is it enabled through some advanced browser setting?
The most irritating thing about this is I distinctly remember having file:/// + inline script working just a few weeks ago. It sucks to lose that convenience, hope we can figure this out.

This HTML file:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en-US">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>title</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="stylesheets/style.css">
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello</h1>
<script> document.write('<script src="http://' + (location.host || 'localhost').split(':')[0] + ':35729/livereload.js?snipver=1"></' + 'script>') </script>
</body>
</html>
works as expected in OSX 10.11 and Windows 10.0 using Chrome 49 with no available updates.
Node v5.3.0 and livereload 0.4.1.
I simply launched
$ livereload .
and opened the page. Made some changes with no issues. Page loaded right up.
The official LiveReload plugin has an option to allow local file access, which needs to be enabled under your extensions. But if you're using the script like I am above, that's not necessary.
If you launch Chrome with the flag --allow-file-access-from-files it will allow local files to work. Although in my tests the above code didn't have a problem.
See if you can reproduce using this simple test case. I'm trying to figure out what else might be involved here.
