Hi All,
    My R installation is acting strangely and I'm hoping somebody might have
an idea what's going on:

You need to give more details. Which R version? (If less than 2.10.1, install that and try again.) Do you have MySQL installed on that machine? (If not, install it.) Which Windows version are you using? Are you able to open other URLs from R, e.g. does

browseURL("http://www.r-project.org";)

work?

I can't seem to load the "RMySQL" function.  It seems to have installed
without a problem, but when I enter:

library(RMySQL)

R tells me:
Error in utils::readRegistry("SOFTWARE\\MySQL AB", hive = "HLM", maxdepth =
2) :
  Registry key 'SOFTWARE\MySQL AB' not found
Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'RMySQL'
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'RMySQL'


Moreover,
If I try to get information about a function (fisher exact test, for
example) by typing:
?fisher.test

R tells me:
Error in shell.exec(url) :
  access to 'http://127.0.0.1:12625/library/stats/html/fisher.test.html'
denied
If I manually open, in a web browser, the html file whose address is given,
I can see and read the document.

I'm wondering whether there is some kind of problem with the registry (any
ideas at all welcome).

Thanks,
Jon
