Yes, Windows 7 does look good, but in view of this and a few other problems that I am aware of (not on Rootschat) I shall wait now and let things settle down somewhat before I take the plunge. It's quite a leap from XP, but then, not as far as the one I made from W98 to XP!

Those options all open a new window rather than navigate to a new page.   I wonder whether it is something like needing to allow popups.   Do you see a yellow bar with a message appear when you try to access Help/Library/Shop ?

I have just clicked on 'Help' and it ain't there so it isn't your fault.

I've fixed the help button now, so hopefully that will work :)

If you hover the mouse pointer over the help button, what do you see as the address in the bottom-left of your internet browser?
