I Googled "Help and Support disappeared " and came up with about 36 links.

For example, perhaps the information in the following link will help.

• PCreview: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support - XP Help and Support disappeared??
  Unfortunately, there is no follow-up in that linked PCreview forum thread to indicate whether any of the suggestions worked or not.

EDIT: Here's a link to Kelly's Korner: Top 10 Frequently Asked Questions and Answers that may be helpful. Scroll down to the "Question: Why doesn't Help and Support work?" section.
