Good Morning,
I'm trying to install the rJava package on a local (work) machine and having
some trouble. The following occurred in an RGui session.

I'm running as a (temporary) local admin on a Windows 7 platform that's not
my own. I'm able to install other packages so I believe the problem is
specific to rJava, but I'm by no means certain of that. It's not super
important so I'd like to avoid the Rtools + .tar.gz route to avoid the wrath
of the IT guys, but if there's something obvious I've missed, any help would
be much appreciated. I've tried to download and look inside the .zip files
manually from the rforge site, but I haven't been able to get them to
download.
Thank you,
Michael Weylandt
