Why is that nowdays, when using rubygems 1.3.6, I get following error
most of the time when trying to install or update gems:

ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
timed out (http://rubygems.org/gems/gemname-version.gem)

Are there some problems with rubygems.org's servers?

Please provide the complete output of the gem install command with "--
debug -V" options

Also, since the gem is public, do not hide the gem name and version.

Can you do wget on the gem?

wget http://rubygems.org/gems/activesupport-2.3.5.gem

Wget works ok.

It seems that I have same problem as Evan Dorn
(http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/204146).

I switched my VirtualBox (I run Kubuntu under Win 7) network adapter
from NAT to Bridged, and everything works now. Though I don't know what
the problem was, this seems to solve it :S
