I don't use this package anymore. The best way to install behind an authenticating proxy (which is what originally stumped me) is to set the HTTP_PROXY environment variable: set HTTP_PROXY=http://user:password@proxy.local:80 Then install gem normally gem install watir Cheers, Tim Koopmans Hi Ropata, thanks for the update!
