In Windows, if a download is interrupted (by switching to the console
window and hitting ESC), the download status dialog can be left
onscreen, with no apparent way to get rid of it (other than stopping and
restarting R).
To duplicate:
Run this:
a <- available.packages()
download.packages(a, 'c:/temp')
Then, during a particularly long download, switch to the console window
and hit ESC.
This affects R-devel, as well as 2.1.1.
