Rails - Aug 2006 - gem install postgres, dead meat - revisited

I''m still trying to install this sucker ... (RR)

I''m behind a firewall on a WinXP machine.

I open up a DOS window, go to my RR sample app and type the following to 
set up postgres:

gem install postgres

I get back the following error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (SocketError)
    getaddrinfo: no address associated with hostname.

So ... I create this environment variable (info from a prev post):

set http_proxy="xxproxy:8080"

and rerun the gem command.

I now get this error:
ERROR: While executing gem ... (URI::InvalidURIError)
   bad URI(is not URI?): "xxproxy:8080:"


Any ideas ?
