Are you saying that removing, for example,
    <key>com.apple.iChat</key>
    <array>
        <array>
            <string>iChatHelp</string>

<string>file://localhost/Applications/iChat.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/iChatHelp/</string>
        </array>
    </array>

(that file URL is wrapped...it aligns with the line above)
from ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.help.plist

isn't sufficient?  Or creating a fresh user?  (I didn't notice anything
related to Help Viewer in /Library/Preferences...there are a couple of
other per-user help-related preferences which didn't look promising...one
keeps the prior language, the other seems tied up with the recent items
stuff.
