[R] Problem Installing/Uninstalling Rattle

Rattle won't install properly on my Windows 7 64 bit laptop.

Here is what I've tried:

I've followed the instructions here:
http://rattle.togaware.com/rattle-install-mswindows.html
I had R installed already.
I downloaded the GTK+ packages, unzipped the 32 bit one into c:\gtkwin32.

I put c:\gtkwin32\bin in the system variables PATH.

I launched R, installed the rattle package, called the rattle library,
called rattle().

It told me RGtk2 could not be found and asked to install it.  I let it
download it to install, but still nothing.

Restarting/resintalling R has not helped.  And when I try
"remove.packages(rattle)" I get the error:

Removing package(s) from ‘C:/Users/darwish/Documents/R/win-library/2.13’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Error in match(x, table, nomatch = 0L) : 
  'match' requires vector arguments

I've restarted R before trying anything multiple times.

>From what I understand, I need to clean everything off and start anew.  How
do I remove rattle so I can start fresh?  What did I do wrong in my steps?  

Thanks in advance.
