Hello,

I was wondering if anyone has run across this problem in the past and might be 
able to suggest a solution.

I did a review of the FAQ's link trying to find a topic that closely related to 
the experience I was having, however I didn't see
anything that might help in diagnosing the problem.

While invoking the options under the package menu I get the following errors:


chooseCRANmirror()

Warning message:

Does anyone have any insights into what might cause this issue, and how I might 
fix the problem?
Any thoughts you may have would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance - Joe Lenart

p.s. -  I have confirmed that I can access the mirror sites using a regular 
browser, so I do not believe this to be a security
or firewall-related issue.
