Replace the 'gameObject.Find("webpage1").GetComponent("WebViewTextureSample").enabled = false' line of code with this code:

var webScript : WebViewTextureSample;

webScript = gameObject.Find("webpage1").GetComponent("WebViewTextureSample");

webScript.enabled = false;

The reason why this works is because '.enabled' is a member of the custom type(Script) created in my code, and UnityEngine.Component does not have the member '.enabled' so it tosses the error.

Don't use quotes in GetComponent unless you really need to (which is almost never).

gameObject.Find("webpage1").GetComponent(WebViewTextureSample).enabled=false;

Using quotes makes it return Component, which you don't want.
