Which CRAN mirror? There was a messup over the weekend where a router
in Dortmund went down and the mirroring software misbehaved, deleting
all the Windows packages from CRAN. However, CRAN master
(cran.r-project.org) is back to normal now, and its mirrors should
follow in a day or two.

Hi Suzette,
  Please supply more information such as how you are downloading the 
package, what operating system you are using, and which version of R you 
have installed (or in general, read the posting guide). The easiest way 
to install a package is within R using ?install.packages. For example,

install.packages(xtable)
works perfectly fine for me in R-2.0.0 patched on Win2K.

Hi Suzette,
did you try several CRAN mirrors, for instance I'm able to download it 
from a UK mirror:

I hope it helps.
Best,
