  No matter on which OS you are, - XP Family, XP Pro or Ubuntu 9.10. Noo matter if you have firewall 'hyper-sensitive' or proxy. When trying to do gem update --system or even when trying to install a new gem like 'gem install [gem_name] I always got the below error: 
  [code] 
  serge@serge-laptop:~$ sudo gem install heroku 
  ERROR:    Error installing heroku:
