So the problem is 'a Saved File'. Move it out of the way. This is not a bug in R, and you have not provided any way to reproduce this.

Dear Mr Ligges, Thank you for your reply. I'd like to apologize if you were so angry and offended with a new R user's misreporting of bugs. Prof. Ripley of Oxford has let me know that the phenomenon wasn't a bug already. Thank you for taking the trouble of telling me again.
