Allen,

I use CHM without problems. 
For network installs, I have a loader program that copies the EXE and CHM to
a local directory. On Vista/7/8 this ends up being the
C:\ProgramData\{myapp} folder.

The help file is easy to locate with
SET HELP TO (ADDBS(JUSTPATH(_VFP.ServerName)) + "{help file}.CHM")

My installs are built with INNO and Digitally signed. The executable files
are also digitally signed. 
I do *not* digitally sign the CHM.
