I've long had issues with .chm files not working including this one.

Your fix worked (on Windows 7, you have to look at the General Properties tab, and the Unblock option is at the bottom. Clicking Unblock greys it out, then it's Apply or OK).

But it seems unfriendly to say the least for a HELP file of all things to just flatly not work like without a word of explanation (or even This file is blocked; do you want to unblock it?)
