Where did you get "mclust.zip"? CRAN shows "mclust_2.1-11.zip". Why not just let R install mclust directly from the CRAN mirror at SFU? Use the menu: Packages > Install package(s).
As to your install.packages(), you need forward slashes, contriburl=, and you probably want a different destdir (or just leave the default NULL).
