Vista Help and Support tab in start menu no longer works

Vista Help and Support tab in start menu no longer works
----"Help Topic Not Found This content under construction We were
unable to retrieve the requested topic."---- is the only thing displayed. I
have seen it work fine before, but I have had problems with my Phishing
filter and did some folder moving and then moving back to default (which I
have done, but that hasn't changed after I've logged on again) and I've tried
system restore and that hasn't worked. And I found out that I had to turn
off my Anti-virus to make restore work. Did that but it still didn't work.
And I had to buy my anti virus again and keep a "key" for a new one should I
need to turn it off again. Also since then my side bar news feed no longer
works, I tried to re-download it, that didn't work so I downloaded a new
different feed and now it works fine?! And My media player library wouldn't
refresh so I had to delete the APP data and thankfully it magically re-did
the data it needed, I'm not too smart a computers and want to know if
deleting all app data and having them magically re-appear might happen? Or
if it's related to something else. Any help would be greatly appreciated
thank you.

Hi Bill

You need to make sure that the ".xml" file extension is associated t
Internet Explorer. Look at the second method here for how to do it.
Internet Explorer is located at "C:\Program Files (x86)\Interne
Explorer\iexplore.exe

I looked at that and .xml had been tagged to IE already.
I don't know maybe it's no longer supported by vista, I heard that somewhere.
