Actually the problem exists only if I use JGR. If I launch R from a terminal window then the text on-line help works. It used to work with JGR too but with R version 2.9.0. Now, JGR shows the new R version is running but the on-line help is no more available from JGR. Perhaps JGR implementors will come up with some suggestion to fix this problem. Thank you, Maura

You could switch to text-based help by editing RHOME/etc/Rprofile.site or your personal Rprofile, but you probably want to fix the bigger problem, which is that your system can't open the URLs that R is giving it. Can you open any URL? E.g. does browseURL("http://www.r-project.org") open that web page? If not, the problem is that your system doesn't know how to open a browser.
