Google suggests that that error message is usually associated with cell phone
browsers, so what exactly are you doing (all steps, including browser info)? I
doubt that this an issue with R as such, more likely you have a general issue

install R and reviewed the information and FAQs from the R Project website.
Unfortunately, I have not been able to find any answers.
