Can't read Compiled Help File after Windows Update last week

[Guest]

I have been running XP Pro SP2 for some time and have had no problem reading
compiled help files until I did a windows update last week (I only do these
once in a while). I can see the left pane, but the right pane just displays
This Page Cannot Be Displayed. Has anyone else run into this and found a way
around it?

Thanks!

I forgot to add that I see "Cannot find server or DNS Error
Internet Explorer" at the bottom.

The official explanation is at

This should only affect .chm files on mapped or network drives, you
should be able to read it from a local drive. The "fix" to allow it to
run on the intranet has not worked here.
