The "GeoCodeHelper" class was added into In-Portal in 2009 year by Dmitry Andrejev and was never used since then.

Problems with a class:

1. uses non-existing system settings: "GeoCodeUser", "GeoCodePass", "GoogleMapsURL", "GoogleMapsKey" and therefore doesn't work
2. it's not registered with class factory and therefore can't be used
3. uses "rie" unix binary to work, but it isn't shipped with In-Portal

Solution

Remove the class, because it creates more chaos than good.
