Dear Yonas,
It usually takes some time until a Windows binary version is available on R-Forge. It is version 0.61 you want here.

So, you can either install the source version using
> install.packages("ca", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org";, type="source")
or manually download and install the binary package from
https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=1859

Kind regards,
Oleg.
