Actually, it probably isn't really corrupted, just not working properly.  Same
thing though right?
Try deleting the povray31.gid file (it's a hidden file; and the pvengine.gid
maybe) in the Help subfolder of POV-Ray folder then when the help files are
accessed those will be rebuilt.  Probably should have POV-Ray not running at
the time of deletion.
Hope that fixes it for you.

Bob
