Cannot connect to remote gem server

I have a problem with my office computer to do gem update
with Ruby128-26 running command

gem update --system

Updating RubyGems...
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::RemoteFetcher::FetchError)
    Invalid argument(Errno::EINVAL)
In my home computer this works, so it is some
kind of network problem ?

Hai Assaf

I updatet Gems 1.3.1 manually and remote connections
started to work, but comand "gem install buildr" still fails
to some library mismatch error.

My colleque told that windows is difficult Ruby environment and he suggested
instantRails installation.

I did it and it works out of the box, no gem updates needed.

Ironically, it might happen because you're running an older version of
RubyGems which can't unpack the newer version you're trying to install.

So download the RubyGems 1.3.1 directly from this URL and then gem install
it:
