Unlike most list members I am a Hal user. Even with the latest version of Hal (6.01) I find the XP Help and Support centre very difficult to use. With luck I may ultimately get to and read the information I want, but only after much time and effort. I would be interested to know how users of JFW or W-E get on with it. I have read and re-read the appropriate chapter in Sarah Morley's "Windows XP Explained" to try and improve my understanding of the interface, but with little improvement in my performance. There is such a vast amount of information there and yet I seldom use it.
