Since some security concerns with chm files have been published:
your admin might have disabled chm interpretation by Windows or some 
other software is blocking chm files. Or perhaps the file is corrupted 
and needs to be reinstalled?
The relevant one is
D:/Programmi/R/R-2.9.0/library/base/chtml/base.chm
