Lightroom Cannot open a web Browser

Question

Hello,
I recently purchased Lightroom and updated to 3.4.1. I am unable to Open the Lightroom Help (F1) menu. It brings up an error dialog box that says "Cannot dislay Help". I also cannot authorize a facebook sync. It pops up a dialog box with a very large URL and then says "Application not found". I am running FireFox 3.6.18 and IE 8 on Windows XP.I have updated Acrobat Reader and just at am a loss for how to get all of the functions to work in Lightroom.
Any help would be appreciated.

               Desktop desktop = null;
               if (Desktop.isDesktopSupported()) {
                    desktop = Desktop.getDesktop();
               if (desktop != null)
                    desktop.browse(uri);
          } catch (IOException ioe) {
               ioe.printStackTrace();
          } catch (URISyntaxException use) {
