Okay, we've added that to the mac, and still the same error. I'm going 
to post a little bit more of the code, it's 900+ lines long, so i'm 
going to only put part of it, the main part of it is repeating for a 
different thing.

///////////////// CODE BEGINING /////////////////

$defout.sync=true
attempt = 0
time = Time.now
day = time.wday
year = time.year

require 'uri'
require 'net/http'
require 'FileUtils'
require 'date'
require 'yaml'

# //** Captions Infomation **//
captions_number = YAML.load(File.open("arrays/captions_number.yaml"))
captions = YAML.load(File.open("arrays/captions_array.yaml"))
captions_delete = []

def image_exists?(url_string)
  url = URI.parse(url_string)
  Net::HTTP.start(url.host, url.port) do |http|
  response = http.head(url.path)
  case response
  when Net::HTTPSuccess, Net::HTTPRedirection
    case response.content_type
    when "image/png", "image/gif", "image/jpeg"
        return true
    end
  end
end
  return false
end

def user_wants_to_save?(url)
   print "#{url}"
   puts ""
   #puts "Time: " + time.to_s
   puts "Delete Permanently? [y/N]: "
   input = $stdin.gets
   if /y/i =~ input
     return true
   else
     return false
   end
end

while(attempt >= 0)
  time = Time.now
  attempt += 1
  print "\n", "-------------------  ", attempt.to_s, " - ", time.hour, 
":", time.min, ":", time.sec, "  -------------------", "\n"

       # //** Captions **//
  captions.each do |url|
    if image_exists?(url)
      if user_wants_to_save?(url)
        captions_delete.push url
      end
    end
  end

  captions_delete_number = captions_delete.length
  captions_delete_number -= 1

  while(captions_delete_number >= 0)
    captions.delete(captions_delete[captions_delete_number])
    captions_delete.delete(captions_delete[captions_delete_number])
    captions_delete_number -= 1
  end

  while(captions.length < 8)
    captions_number += 1
    captions.push "http://images.neopets.com/caption/sm_caption_" + 
captions_number.to_s + ".gif"
  end

  File.open("arrays/captions_array.yaml","w") do |out|
    out << captions.to_yaml
  end
  File.open("arrays/captions_number.yaml","w") do |out|
    out << captions_number.to_yaml
  end

//////// END OF CODE ////////////

Basically it's a program that checks to see if images exist. =D Now, 
with the proper files and everything, it works wonders on windows. 
However, even adding the require 'yaml' didn't work. It was there from 
the beginning, so that couldn't be the problem - unless you have to have 
"yaml" on the mac somewhere?!?
