RGoogleTrends error in "getGTrends"

Hi all,

I've just installed RGoogleTrends Version:0.2-1 (after compiling it for
windows).
And when running the most basic command I get the following error:

   ans = getGTrends("coupon")

Error in curlPerform(url = url, curl = curl, .opts = .opts) :
  embedded nul in string: '<ff><fe>Y'
In addition: Warning message:
RS-DBI driver warning: (closing pending result sets before closing this
connection)


Am I missing something, or is this due to some change in Rgoogletrends
website?

p.s: any chance there is a Rgoogleinsights alternative? (for
http://www.google.com/insights/search/) I wasn't able to find any.


Thanks in advance,
Tal
