Recent versions of R have introduced some bug related to accessing the Internet through a transparent proxy. It has been discussed recently, twice, for the Windows and Linux platforms. Please check these threads [1] [2]. Basically, you would need to install wget, make sure that it can access the Internet (tweak the config files and make it aware of the transparent proxy) and use method="wget" when installing packages within R.
