If it does work, I'd suggest talking to your server admin.

A safer solution would be to have a simple script that retrieves and saves a local copy of the desired file, then use that local copy as your include file. Set a Cron to periodically update that file at a specified interval.
I was going to just post the same - and if the server settings do allow it, you'd better get ready to be hacked - even if the includes only go across domains.

After much thought, we went with a script. So far, the one's we've implemented are working very well.
