^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I think that is the hint you were looking for. However, 
there may be more than one reason for the problem. I would first look 
in your package library (use .libPaths() to figure out where your 
packages are located) and see if there is a folder called

OOLOCK-org.Hs.eg.db

If so, delete that and try again.

Best,

Jim
