Change your script's file extension to ".rbw". That should cause Windows 
to run your script with ruybw.exe instead of ruby.exe and no console 
window pops up. But keep in mind that every puts and p will now cause 
your script to fail, because the standard output and standard error 
handles are invalid. I recommand you to redirect them to a file:
$stdout = $stderr = File.open("MyApplication.log", "a")
