Look at your plot command. You included type="o" twice.

If you post in HTML which fails to properly represent your code you  
should not be expecting us to deparse it correctly in our heads.

As the footer says...

 PLEASE do read the posting guide
http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.

Some issues with your email are:

a) You posted in HTML, which in spite of appearances does NOT appear on our screens the same as on your screen. Configure your mail to be sent in plain text.

b) "Reproducible code" means we can paste it into our R interpreter and get the same result you did. You did not give us the code that read your data into the "dados" object, or data in an R-understandable way. Read http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5963269/how-to-make-a-great-r-reproducible-example

I doubt you should be referring to "dados[1]", "dados[2]" and similar... plot and lines functions accept a whole vector of data at once. Also, the ">>" bits sprinkled in don't look like valid syntax, but I can't tell if that is due to HTML corruption or whether you actually typed that in.

You are still using html - you need to tell hotmail to use plain text only.

I can't replicate your error with the following:

dados <- c(44, 40, 39, 38, 0, 7, 7, 1030, 57, 37, 5146, 40, 41, 4737, 34,
36, 
  2636, 28, 33, 3738, 26, 28, 2742, 38, 36, 3636, 27, 22, 2853, 43, 33, 40)

plot(dados[1],type="o",pch=21,axes=FALSE,xlab="year",ylab="cases")
lines(dados[2], type="o", pch=22)
lines(dados[3], type="o",pch=23)
lines(dados[4], type="o",pch=24)
legend(1,8.5, legend=c("Pel","RG","SM","SV"),pch=21:24)
axis(1,at=1:10,lab=c("2000","2001","2002","2003","2004","2005","2006",
     "2007","2008","2009"))
axis(2,0:60)

But I'm sure the result is not what you are looking for since you are using
lines() to plot a single symbol (points() is normally used for this). You
have 32 values in dados (or 40 if the 4-digit values should really be two
2-digit values). You are trying to plot 10 years on the x axis and you
specify a range for the y-axis of 0 to 60, but the range in values is much
greater. Use dput(dados) and paste that into your email and tell us what the
plot should look like. 

As a wild guess let's say you really want

dados <- matrix(c(44, 40, 39, 38, 0, 7, 7, 10, 30, 57, 37, 51, 46, 40, 41,
47,
 37, 34, 36, 26, 36, 28, 33, 37, 38, 26, 28, 27, 42, 38, 36, 36, 36, 27,
 22, 28, 53, 43, 33, 40), ncol=4)
group <- c(rep("Pel", 10), rep("RG", 10), rep("SM", 10), rep("SV", 10))
year <- 2000:2009
matplot(year, dados, col=1, pch=21:24)
legend("bottomleft", legend=c("Pel","RG","SM","SV"), pch=21:24)

Is this closer to what you are looking for?
