install SPIA package on Windows

Both the 'Writing R Extensions' and 'R Installation and Administration' 
manuals point you at the win-builder service.  The latter also tells you 
how to set Windows up to build source packages.

Hello all,

I have read the suggested manuals, but I do not manage to install the SPIA 
package yet.
I have installed Rtools28.exe following the indications, I have put the 
package tar.gz in c:\ directory and I have extracted it by using command 
window on c:\ folder and the following instruction

tar xvfz SPIA_0.0.1.tar.gz.

Then a new folder has been created, named SPIA, in c:\ containing extracted 
files.
I have opened Rgui and I have typed

library(SPIA,lib.loc="c:/")

but unsuccessfully. This is the error message I have received:
Error in library(SPIA, lib.loc = "c:/") :
  'SPIA' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0?

Where is the problem?
Do I have to perform anything else?

Thank you so much for your help.

BG
Erika

You did not INSTALL the package.  However, this has nothing to do with the 
*win-builder* service I pointed you to.
