I tried this code using Ruby 1.8.0preview6 and it worked without any 
trouble. The Ruby version you're using, 1.7.3-8 is the prior 
development release and was superseded by the 1.8 preview releases. The 
last stable release was 1.6.8. I recommend getting the latest 1.8 
preview build available for windows -- I have heard that they exist.
