PS: with respect to the reported security issue, please take good note that this is a WinME issue. Windows XP is vulnerable _only_ if patch MS02-060 was not applied. So most WinXP users are safe. Moreover, a Microsoft guy told me the Help Center is not included in Windows 2000, so Win2000 should not be vulnerable.
