IMPORTANT EDIT FOR "Steps to Reproduce": changing
> Steps to Reproduce:
> 1. Open the Help menu in any LibreOffice module.
> 2. Click on the "LibreOffice help" menu item.
> 3. Your default browser should start up in a few seconds, loading the help page.
> 4. If your default browser is set to Firefox, an infinite redirect is made to the same page as the current one (file path depending on Operating Systems, but in Windows, it is something like file:///C:/Users/<your-username>/AppData/Local/Temp/lu12088klh.tmp/NewHelp0.html).

to the following:

Prerequisites:
  - The default web browser to open HTML files (or file:/// URLs) is Firefox.
  - The scripts (at least in <script> blocks) coming from file:/// must be
blocked, either by the browser, or by  a third-party extension.

Steps to reproduce:
  1. Open the Help menu in any LibreOffice module.
  2. Click on the "LibreOffice help" menu item.
  3. Your default browser should start up in a few seconds, loading the help
page.
  4. If your default browser is set to Firefox, AND JavaScript coming from
file:/// URLs is blocked, an infinite redirect is made to the same page as the
current one (file path depending on Operating Systems, but in Windows, it is
something like
file:///C:/Users/<your-username>/AppData/Local/Temp/lu12088klh.tmp/NewHelp0.html).

Also updating the attachment #149328 to reflect the bugs.
