If R version-specific registry keys are used, one can even select from 
multiple versions of R by right clicking on a directory from Windows 
Explorer:

To add key for R 2.4.0:

R2.4.0.reg  (delete the proxy part if not needed)
-----
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\R 2.4.0]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\R 2.4.0\command]
@="C:\\Program Files\\R\\R-2.4.0\\bin\\Rgui.exe 
http_proxy=http://proxy01:8080 http_proxy_user=ask"
-----


To delete this key:

R2.4.0-Delete.reg
-----
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\R 2.4.0]
-----

These files can be edited with Windows Notepad and modified for other 
versions.
