Yes? An error? So what is the error?  (Please now take the time to  
read the Posting Guide which it appears you have skipped over.)

Not posting enough information. If and only if the package needs to be  
compiled (which is currently in doubt) then you need the proper Tools  
to do so. If it's a binary package, it needs to be "installed". I  
don't have a Windows copy or R, but things I read in the Windows RFAQ  
make me think there _should_ be a Packages Menu and that your using  
the File menu may be your primary error:
