R help - Feb 2013 - Error: package/namespace load failed for ‘arm’

Hi!
I get the following error messages when trying to run the package 'arm'.
> library(arm)
Error : Functions found when exporting methods from the namespace ‘arm’
which are not S4 generic: ‘fixef’, ‘ranef’
Error: package/namespace load failed for ‘arm’

My R version is:
> version
               _
platform       i386-w64-mingw32
arch           i386
os             mingw32
system         i386, mingw32

svn rev        61015
language       R
version.string R version 2.15.2 (2012-10-26)
nickname       Trick or Treat

When running the install for 'arm' it looks like the install was
successful
and 'arm' shows up in my package list and has created a folder in the
library (C:\Users\Pernille\Documents\R\win-library\2.15\arm)
> install.packages("arm")
Installing package(s) into ‘C:/Users/Pernille/Documents/R/win-library/2.15’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
trying URL '

Content type 'application/zip' length 237391 bytes (231 Kb)
opened URL

package ‘arm’ successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling 'arm'. I recently updated R
from
version 2.15.0 to 2.15.2 but 'arm' ran with the same error messages in
both
versions. It has never worked on my computer. I have tried in both 64 and
32 bit R.

Hope someone can help me, I much appreciate it!

Please run

update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE)

to update all the dependencies. Then try again.
The package passes all checks (including package loading) on CRAN:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_arm.html

Best,
