Tweaking It's all about not having to wait, right? Overclocking, registry edits, tips, tricks, etc.

Disable F1 Help in IE7

Is there a simple way to do this? I hate that! I have this bad habit of accidentally hitting it when I go to type an exclamation point.

It activates iexplore.chm in the windows/help folder.

Ah, I figured it out. If you quit IE you can rename that file, then F1 does nothing when in IE.

Back in the day when harddrive space was at a premium, I used to delete all Windows help files. They are still *probably* the most useless waste of space there is. Next to between Dubya's ears, that is.

True, they always seem to tell you something very true and utterly useless.
