Description Al George 2002-05-19 20:45:28 UTC 
Behavior:
Yelp crashes whenever selected [Applications--->Help].  This occurs no
matter when I select Yelp - i.e. just after startup, halfway into my
current session etc.

Expected:
Yelp should not crash

Frequency:
Every single time

I've included two traces. I hope these help

Trace # 1:
