No, but arial is, which is very similar. In fact, if for some reason you 
still have Windows you can find that font in c:\windows\fonts. A lot of 
websites are set to use verdana and arial as well as helvetica, so it's 
probably a good idea to have one of them on your system.

Of course, a good question is why has your helvetica font disappeared?
