Try a google search for the package, I ran into the same issue

There is currently no version of RDCOMClient for R 2.10, and RBloomberg depends on this package.

You can install RBloomberg on R 2.9 with:
install.packages("RBloomberg",repos="http://r.bloombergapi.com/")

This issue will be resolved very soon by switching to the new Java API which will remove the RDCOMClient dependency altogether. Will be announced on this list when available.
