Computer problem: helpctr.exe keeps loading

[Albeniz]

Very recently my computer seems to be opening enormous numbers of instances

of helpctr.exe by itself when I am surfing the net. The system comes to a halt and pressing

Ctrl+Alt+Delete just shows me many instances of helpctr.exe

 

Any solutions? Computer is Acer Aspire one netbook. Many thanks.
