Do you always use :qa to quit? :qa doesn't save the session. Maybe
you've sometime used :wqall that DOES save the session. If you've once
done it, it'll load the session that you've saved before, as :qa
doesn't overwrite the previous session. Try :wqall when you have no
pages open. Does it still load help?

Another option I can think of is that you have 'help' in your
.vimperatorrc file.
