R Cran can't connect to package pages [closed]

Question

I'm having a problem accessing R information. Normally when I google something like:

r randomforest

I'll get results like these:

CRAN - Package randomForest

[PDF] Package 'randomForest'

that link to package pages or pdf user manuals. For the last week or so I get the following error whenever I try to search for package manuals or information and click on the returned links:

Object not found!

The requested URL was not found on this server. The link on the referring page seems to be wrong or outdated. Please inform the author of that page about the error.

If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

I'm not sure what's wrong. I'm using R 2.14 on a windows 7 machine. I use firefox but did recently install IE 9 but don't use it. Any suggestions?

UPDATE:

Bad Link example : CRAN - Package randomForest

Answer 1

I'm not sure what's behind it, but Martin Maechler posted a backup link on r-devel a couple of days ago:

http://cran.CH.r-project.org/web/packages/

Answer 2

As of now, the package pages are available again. Brian Ripley recently posted this news.
