Hi.

I recently upgraded my R installation to 2.11.0 on Windows XP (SP3) without
changing any firewall settings. When I attempted to update my package list,
the 'Select a mirror' took much longer than it normally did, and after I
finally selected the site, I saw:

--- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session ---
Warning message:
In open.connection(con, "r") :
unable to connect to 'cran.r-project.org' on port 80.

The only action I performed in a prior session was to download and install
several packages including Bioconductor.

Any idea what the problem might be?

Thanks,

Caitlin
