You should jsut use Webrick if you are just deving rails on your system. If you are acutally using your computer as a server... then I cant help, sorry. I have no experience with IIS. But webrick comes setup out of the box with ruby and has simple rails support

Yes most likely because its attempting to install rails from online. But you can read here which says how to install behind a proxy, and if that fails, it teaches a manual install:
