Why does Calc try to use Internet Explorer?
On older versions of Windows which do not have built-in support for HTML Help, Calc tries to locate an HTML browser. When you click on the Help button, Calc first tries to launch Windows HTML Help (which is a standard component of more recent versions of Windows). If this fails it starts looking for Internet Explorer, because most Windows systems have IE installed. If Windows fails to locate IE it looks for Netscape Navigator. If this fails, the user is given the opportunity to specify the location of the browser. You can also specifically tell Calc which browser executable to use within the Data tab of the Options dialog.
