Amanda,

I'm not sure what's causing this issue Your problem seems to be related to 
statconn installation - which is out of my hands. You may want to check out 
http://rcom.univie.ac.at/ for further information 

Although, RFortran has not been tested with Windows Vista. 

However the next release of RFortran (v3.0.0) the installer is now compatible 
with Windows 7 - which could also work on Vista. I would be interested to see 
how you go. 

I've added you to RFortran-users google group so you can receive updates

Mark
