In the Delphi 2005 help, the address for the class-helper topic is 
ms-help://borland.bds3/bds3guide/html/ClassHelpers.htm. If the address 
isn't similar for Delphi 2006, try finding it by searching the help for 
"helper."

I found a few interesting discussions form the following search.

http://groups.google.com/groups?as_q=class+helper&as_ugroup=*delphi*

Presumably so. TObject itself uses a class helper on System.Object.
