[R] Install SciView under Windows Vista

[Tim Sippel]

Thanks for your advice.  Seems to have been a quirk in the installation of
R2HTML which is now resolved.

Are you sure your version of R2HTML is up-to-date and built under R 2.5.0?
Use update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE) if you have not already done so.

That got me R2HTML 1.58, not 1.54.
