    Verdana on Win XP is another one you can use that looks close you buy them. For som fonts you have to pay and Helvetica is one of them ,it's an Adobe font and it isn't free. I searched the google and found it on fonts.com but its of $22, If you can afford then go ahead and buy it, other wise try the verdana as substitute.

    Actually Airal is the subtitute of Helvetica in Windows XP and there is no utlra light installed in windows XP , instead of that there is Arial Narrow presents. Windows has a default registry field called "fontsubstitutions" that manages meta-level font associations. And in fontsubstitutes "Helvetica" points to the font "Arial".
