disabling help & support

Windows Help and Support (helpPane.exe) is popping up when I perform an
unrelated function in another program. The message is (Why can't I get Help
from this program? The Help for this program was created in Windows Help
format, which was used in previous versions of windows and is not supported
in Windows Vista). How do I stop Help and Support from constantly popping up?

Hello,
It'd be nice if you'll name the software you're working with when this error
message pops up...

Hi,

See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/917607 to add the necessary support for
that file type. Then the messages should stop.
