Cleaning up some old messages, I found this one....

Rattle won't install properly on my Windows 7 64 bit laptop.
Here is what I've tried:
I've followed the instructions here:

I had R installed already.
I downloaded the GTK+ packages, unzipped the 32 bit one into c:\gtkwin32.
See the repository's ReadMe in
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/2.13/ReadMe
that tells you:
- Package RGtk2 requires an an installation of Gtk+ aka Gtk2 >= 2.20.
For 32-bit R, version 2.20 or later from
http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php, e.g.
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gtk+/2.22/gtk+-bundle_2.22.0-20101016_win32.zip
For 64-bit R, version 2.20 or later from
http://www.gtk.org/download/win64.php, e.g.
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win64/gtk+/2.22/gtk+-bundle_2.22.0-20101016_win64.zip
In each case, unpack the zip file in a suitable empty directory and
put the 'bin' directory in your path. NB: the 32-bit and 64-bit
distributions contain DLLs of the same names, and so you must ensure
that you have the 32-bit version in your path when running 32-bit R
and the 64-bit version when running 64-bit R - and the error
messages you get with the wrong version are confusing.
I put c:\gtkwin32\bin in the system variables PATH.
I launched R, installed the rattle package, called the rattle library,
called rattle().
It told me RGtk2 could not be found and asked to install it. I let it
download it to install, but still nothing.
Restarting/resintalling R has not helped. And when I try
"remove.packages(rattle)" I get the error:
Removing package(s) from ‘C:/Users/darwish/Documents/R/win-library/2.13’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Error in match(x, table, nomatch = 0L) :
'match' requires vector arguments
The package name has to be quotes (i.e. specified as character rather
than symbol).

I've restarted R before trying anything multiple times.
From what I understand, I need to clean everything off and start anew. How
do I remove rattle so I can start fresh? What did I do wrong in my steps?
Thanks in advance.
