I did try the other ways and the above trial shows some progress: > utils:::menuInstallPkgs() --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- Warnung: unable to access index for repository http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.6 Warnung: unable to access index for repository http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/2.6 Fehler in install.packages(NULL, .libPaths()[1], dependencies = NA, type = type) : no packages were specified Zusätzlich: Warning message: In open.connection(con, "r") : kann 'cran.r-project.org' nicht auflösen starting with --internet2: > utils:::menuInstallPkgs() --- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session --- Fehler: Indizierung außerhalb der Grenzen Zusätzlich: Warning messages: 1: In read.dcf(file = tmpf) : Line starting '<html> ...' is malformed! 2: In read.dcf(file = tmpf) : Line starting ' <head> ...' is malformed! 3: In read.dcf(file = tmpf) : Line starting '</html> ...' is malformed! I also tried "C:\Program Files\R\R-2.6.2\bin\Rgui.exe" http_proxy=myproxy.mycompany.com http_port=8080 but it gives the same resuat as the very frist solution ("malformed"). What about the firewall settings mentoined in the FAQ?
