Margam,

I cannot reproduce your problem as described.

    C:\>set watir_browser=firefox

    C:\>irb
    irb(main):001:0> require 'watir'
    => true
    irb(main):002:0> b = Watir::Browser.new
    => #<FireWatir::Firefox:0x3d32c48 @window_url="about:blank",
    @t=#<Thread:0x3d0c7
    8c sleep>, @window_title="", @error_checkers=[]>
    irb(main):003:0>
