Yes, on my machine.  But what is stopping you building one as the 
@ReadMe and rw-FAQ asked you to?

It is a pure R package and install.packages(type="source') will be 
able to install it without any additional tools.  You will first need 
to install RDCOMClient, but that is available from Omegahat.  So

setRepositories(ind=1:3)
install.packages(c('RDCOMClient', 'zoo', 'chron'))
install.packages('RBloomberg', type='source')

or something similar should install it for you.

(Please do follow the posting guide.  I am guessing you meant *32-bit* 
Windows, but you do really need to tell us the information we asked 
for.)
