In response to the first post: "no prob" or "no problem" is pretty much my automatic reaction to a thank you. Why? Fuck if I know, but that's what I say. Doesn't mean I think any less of the thank you than if I'd said "you are quite welcome" (which I do occasionally say if I'm particularly aware of the conversation at the moment). I still greatly appreciate it when people appreciate and acknowledge my help.
No problem is just a shortening of "I am glad to help you", noting that the person is not off-put by assisting you.
