You'll need to upgrade to 0.4.2.  You can either build from source or
download the .so file directly, rename it to "changenotify.so", and
install it under c:\ruby\lib\ruby\1.8\i386-mswin32\win32.

The .zip file is at
http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/14978/win32-changenotify-0.4.2.zip
The .so file is at
http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/14979/changenotify-0.4.2.so
