Initial Leave to Remain (ILR) or Further Leave to Remain (FLR) under HSMP is usually granted for a period of 2 years. I am surprised as to how you got a validity for 4 years (I am assuming that you got it in July 2006) !!
Anyways, there should be no issues with re-entering UK if the Validity of the VISA is till July 2007. There could however be issues with respect to FLR when you apply for one later on ( One should not be out of UK for a period more than 3 months, in order to use the prior period for being eligible for FLR - you may have to apply for a fresh HSMP then)
