Hi,
While trying to update my GEMS in 6.7.1 some of them returned invalid format. I finally think I have isolated the reason and it is because my company web filtering software prohibits access to any site with the word "forum" in it.
Here is the dump:

ERROR: While executing gem ... (Gem::InstallError)
invalid gem format for c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/cache/actionpack-2.3.3.gem
So can someone just confirm that it is legit to be accessing a forum during a gem update so I can tell our security to allow access to this site
Thanks,
Carl
