I guess you have installed the *source* package without compiling it. 
Either compile it youself or get the binary.

For Windows binaries 
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/1.8/@ReadMe tells you:

"The packages
   XML, ncdf, netCDF, and xgobi
do not build out of the box. Nevertheless these are available at
