You can use msconfig to view ur startup.
[Start->Run. Type msconfig. Press enter. Go to Startup Tab]

You can also use Sysinternal's Autoruns, which also shows the DLLs loaded at startup.

Regarding ur Help Center, Try disabling ur Antivirus and then open it.
I am telling this because Help Center uses scripts and there are some Antivirus programs which stop it.
