Hell what is gfont.exe

If you searched for “gfont” in this forum, you might have found this thread:
http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&t=11037 [sidefx.com]

I'd try what rafal said in that thread:

One possibility is that the installer encountered a bad truetype font.
Unfortunately, this happens from time to time due to the inherent nature of the
truetype font format. This installation step isn't necessary if you do not need
to use truetype fonts in Houdini and it can be rerun later if needed. So on
your system, first try to get Houdini installed without this step. Just kill
gfont.exe from the Task Manager.

Once Houdini is installed, we can debug the issue as follows:
1. Launch Command Line Tools from the Start Menu under
Side Effects Software > Houdini X.X.XXX.
2. Run this command: gfont -Sv This will generate verbose processing.
If the program stalls at any given point in time for longer than a minute, then
that is probably a bad font. If you send us that font file, then we can try to
fix gfont so that it can handle it.
