Well I figured it out...
to fix html problem, open up /tutorials/index.php
find
$myts->makeTboxData4Show($myrow['cdesc']);
replace with
$cdesc = $myrow['cdesc'];
if you need html in title, then find
$myts->makeTboxData4Show($myrow['cname']);
replace with
$cname = $myrow['cname'];
Another bug in this module is [ratethis] tag not parsing in tutorial view. To fix it open /tutorials/viewtutorial.php and find
$content = str_replace("[date]","$date",$content);
add after
$content = str_replace("[ratethis]"," <a href="rate.php?tid=$tid"><b>"._MD_RATETHIS."</b></a>",$content);
There is ton of bugs in this module, it took me last 6 days to fix so it works for me. The blocks are totally screwed up, you will end up re-making them.
Here is my tutorials_top.php file. It should work for you, if you change respective file paths.
<?php

I suggest you modyfy you short timestammp to something good looking, like "05 Apr 08", that way it will look nicer while used with above blocks ^_^
Good luck with this module, if you are going to use it, there is lots more bugs in it.. I found it easier to fix it then to write my own xP
