[R] Rgui front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close

[Murray Jorgensen]

Well I don't know if anyone can help with this but it will be 
interesting to know if others have had the same problem.

I can't start R at home on my laptop [ I'm using 1.8.1 under Windows 
XP]. When I click on the shortcut I get the usual Windows box for when 
an application needs to close. A couple of clicks down it displays the 
following:

Error signature
AppName: rgui.exe	 AppVer: 1.81.31121.0	 ModName: msvcrt.dll
ModVer: 7.0.2600.1106	 Offset: 0003213b

as well as another uncopyable window containing a large amount of binary.

I was going to re-install R at work today but the thing worked OK. But 
back home tonight I get the same problem! The only difference between 
home and work is that at work I'm connected to a LAN.

Cheers,

Murray
