That could mean you’re not connected to the internet or that computer cannot resolve the [gems.rubyforge.org](http://gems.rubyforge.org) hostname. try the following into a console window: ping [gems.rubyforge.org](http://gems.rubyforge.org) You should get some output like: Pinging [gems.rubyforge.org](http://gems.rubyforge.org) [205.234.109.19] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 205.234.109.19: bytes=32 time=424ms TTL=54 If not, then there is something wrong with your TCP/IP Configuration. HTH,
