XOX

[Guest]

I keep getting XOX in random places instead of relevent text in XP Home help
menus. For example:

Incoming connections

By creating an incoming connection, a computer can act as a remote access
server if it is running Windows 2000 Professional, XOX, or XOX, or if it is a
stand-alone computer running Windows 2000 Server. You can configure an
incoming connection to accept the following connection types: dial-up (modem,
ISDN, X.25), virtual private network (VPN) (PPTP, L2TP), or direct (serial,
infrared). On a computer running Windows 2000 Professional, XOX, or XOX, an
incoming connection can accept up to three incoming calls, up to one of each
of these types.

I don't have Visual Studio 6.0 installed, which is a known cause of this,
and script debugging is on in IE 6 (Mozilla Firefox is my default browser)

Anyone know what I can do to read these help files?

Try turning it off. Although Firefox is your default browser, underpinnings
for MS Help files is IE.

Adding to what Sharon said:

Make sure that the Active Scripting is enabled for the local zone.
