[R] Window help files on networked drives may not be visible

[Prof Brian Ripley]

Now R 2.4.x defaults to CHM help, you may encounter a problem with a 
fairly recent Windows security patch described in

http://www.helpscribble.com/chmnetwork.html
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896358

This may apply if you have R itself or some library on a networked drive 
or share.  Apart from the workarounds described in those URLs, there is an 
R-specific workaround: delete the pkgname/chtml folders in network-mounted 
libraries (when R will revert to text help for those packages), or 
customize the startup and select one of the other help options.
