you have to put Rtools in your path! This has been recently discussed
on the list (two or three days ago).
Assuming that you have downloaded Rtools from:
http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools and you have extracted them
at, e.g., C:\Rtools do the following:
control panel -> system -> advanced -> environment variables ->
system
variables -> path -> edit
and add this: C:\Rtools\bin;
I hope it helps.
Best,
Dimitris

Please read the R for Windows FAQ and the docs cited therein how to install packages under Windows.
