I used HTMLKit when I still used Windows, and liked it a lot. It's really a great HTML/PHP, etc. editor, if you can get past the front page. That being said (if I remember correctly) hh.exe is a part of htmlkit, and may have been the the cause of your problem by making itself the default chm reader. (Check your settings under files to see what you have as the default reader now. (and sorry, forgot how to do that, it's been almost two years since I've had to fiddle with Windows, so I'm not sure of the exact place to check for it.))
