Thanks for a great application. Just having a bit of a problem figuring some parts of the interface. When I choose help in the portable version I get "Navigation to the web page cancelled" for every topic.
TIA

This is some kind of Internet Explorer "security feature" blocking the html help pages. There is a IE setting somewhere deep in its configuration screens to allow access.
Currently I don't have this issue anymore, but I solved it this way a long time ago. Let me know what setting it was. Maybe FFS help is doing something wrong?

If you are running Win 7 you just need to do a right click on the file.
