[R] Download advice please!

[Mulholland, Tom]

There's built in FTP in windowsXP, which I assume is what they are likely to have. If they open file explorer there's an entry called "My Network Places". The problem I had seeing if it would work, was that ftp://cran.r-project.org/pub/R/ doesn't want to know me. Not that I was at all sure, that's where I should have been looking. So my issue was knowing if and where the packages are available through FTP.
