Hi Lauren!

I've seen this error when the app goes down while my tests are
running.

Have you verified that you can access the site manually with IE6?  If
so, the next step I would try is to use irb to step through your test.

If all else fails, I'd uninstall/reinstall IE6 and/or ruby and watir
since it seems the problem is just with this one system.  Sometimes a
fresh start is a quicker solution than troubleshooting a hosed
configuration.

Hope this helps!
