and I am not sure that this "feature" can be easily disabled, cause it is not about opening files I download, it is about having the browser follow a link using Launch Services, which I do not think can be disabled, and if it could, it would also break ftp:, mailto:, or other stuff

Get More Internet (http://www.monkeyfood.com/software/moreInternet/) or MisFox (http://www.clauss-net.de/misfox/misfox.html) and set the "help" helper application to something other than Help Viewer.

This does not break other protocols and avoids Help Viewers misfeature.
