I have Windows 7 Enterprise and am trying to run JRuby. I set my environment variables for Ruby (1.9.3), Java (jdk - 1.6.7) and JRuby (1.7preview). I have a network drive, but I created a HOME system variable that seems to work because I can successfully load gems for Ruby and JRuby and they are saved on my local drive.
When I try to launch a browser (e.g. firefox, chrome), it seems to freeze for JRuby but not Ruby. Here is the trace for JRuby after she tried to execute for 10 minutes:

JRuby seems to be hanging because it is looking for an open port. We need to use an HTTP proxy for our network, and I also have a system variable. I really don't know why Vatyr will work on Ruby, but not on JRuby.
