Or, better, use header=FALSE, skip=1 and the col.names arg of read.table().

My solution is reading the files without the headers (skip = 1) and seperately reading the headers with scan (scan("myfile.CSV", what = "character", sep = "\t", nlines = 1). After throwing out the first two columns it should be possible to assign the scanned colnames to the data.frame colnames.

Cheers
Martin
