Watir-webdriver 64bit windows7 cannot open any browser with error unexpected response, code = 502, content-type = "text/html"

Env-

rubygems 1.8.24
Watir 4.0.2

When try to create a browser (Chrome or IE) instance, it will fail with below errors
When try to create a Firefox instance, it will open the Firefox and then close automatically with the same errors.

One point to add - The same environment in 32bit windows 7, everything works good. I doubt if there is some difference of the supporting of webdriver between 64bit win7 and 32bit win7

Any advice will be highly appreciated.

It was solved! My network has a proxy, when I tried to install the watir, I configured the command line with the proxy, so the command line can download and install watir. After installation, I did NOT delete the proxy that I configured, it was still in the envrionment variables. That's why it fails each time I tried to start a browser with watir-webdriver. Delete this proxy, everything works fine.

Thanks guys for your participate in solving this problem.
