Install Ruby

• Log in as administrator.
• Download the One-Click Ruby Installer for Windows (v.1.8.6-26) from the Ruby One Click Installer Page .

  We recommend using the latest version of Ruby 1.8.6 with Watir 1.6. Watir's modal dialog support in Watir 1.5 required Ruby 1.8.2. This is no longer true and this feature now requires Ruby 1.8.6.

• Run it (leave all choices at the default).
