Hi:
I have no idea what that software is & an internet search didn't turn up anything specific.
Your best bet will be to head over to the malware removal forum.
A trained expert can assist with scanning & cleaning your system using custom scripts & tools, as needed.
I suggest starting with this guide, following the instructions as best you can:
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/t/34773/preparation-guide-for-use-before-using-malware-removal-tools-and-requesting-help/
Then please post both requested FRST logs in a NEW, SEPARATE topic here in the Malware Removal section:
https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/f/22/virus-trojan-spyware-and-malware-removal-help/
A trained expert will guide you through diagnosis and (if need be) cleanup.
Thanks

httrack is a website copier, is a free (GPL, libre/free software) and easy-to-use offline browser utility.

That's what I thought.
But if standard removal/uninstall methods don't work, I still recommend heading to the Malware Removal section for assistance.
Cheers

@MoxieMomma would uninstalling via Revo not work?

That is precisely why I prefaced my advice with "...if standard uninstall/removal methods don't work...:.
I presumed that the OP had already tried the usual strategies before posting here.
Yes, Revo or Geek Uninstaller may work.
Even if this program is not "malware", we are not permitted here in this forum section to request the diagnostic logs or to run the custom scripts that might be needed.
Thank you

Should I use this, revouninstaller?
Worth a try. 
How to unintall a program/app Windows 10
If those do not work, then I suggest that you please follow my original advice.

These should be the registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WinHTTrack Website Copier
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WinHTTrack Website Copier
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.whtt
Since it is project that is still ongoing, I would contact https://github.com/xroche regarding any issues that you cannot find in the archived forum posts at httrack .com
