Larry, There are several step-by-step installation guides posted on the CRAN, under contributed documentation. Most documents there begin by describing how to download and install R.
And yes, I use Agresti and Finlay (1997) "Statistical Methods for the Social Sciences" paired with Verzani's (2005) "Using R for Introductory Statistics". I teach a graduate sequence in statistics for sociology students. By the way, I heard the new Agresti and Finlay edition was coming out soon.
