I'm guessing you're on Windows (but you should post the output of
sessionInfo() so that we can know this, plus other information helpful
to diagnose the problem).

I was just able to install GEOquery using biocLite() on windows and it
didn't take long.
Of course, I am here at FHCRC; you may be encountering network latency issues.

Several files may be downloaded when you install GEOquery. If you
could let us know which ones seem to be getting stuck, that would also
help.

Thanks
