 Hi,

Everytime I type in

source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R") on R,

I get a error message saying
 "unable to connect to 'bioconductor.org' on port 80.

I've read the R faq and I do not really understand it because I don't really know too much about proxy server and etc. Can I get some advice on this problem?

Many thanks,
Lin
