Presumably a problem at your end. Suspicion points to permission settings on 
the target directory, or virus checkers "helpfully" moving recently created 
files to a safe place for scrutiny.

(Do you _really_ get errors for "survival" when installing "Hmisc"? It could 
happen via a dependency, I suppose. If it is just the survival folder that has 
incorrect owner/permission, you could try removing the folder and reinstalling 
survival.)
