procmon from sysinternals help file doesn't open

If you attempt to access the help file from within procmon on Windows Vista or Windows 7, its possible that windows may refuse to display the help file. It turned out that there was a security flag that needed to be cleared.

ProcMon Help Problem

To do this, I browsed to the directory where I had installed procmon and opened the .chm file which caused the following dialogue to appear: ProcMon Security Warning

I unchecked the "Always ask before opening this file" box, and then when I accessed the help from within process monitor, I was able to view the help file properly.
