Hello Friends,

I have installed Ruby 1.8.6-26 and then tried to update its gems.

Please install a newer version of Ruby, like using RubyInstaller:

http://rubyinstaller.org/downloads

It includes updated RubyGems that works with newer RubyGems.org gem
hosting.

When I type following command and hit enter I got an error

c:\gem update --system

Updating RubyGems
 Error:while executing gem... <Gem::RemoteSourceException>
 Http response 302

I am stuck with this and unable to proceed further to install WATIR.

You're stuck there because that old version of Ruby tries to download
gems from RubyForge, which no longer provides gem hosting.
