Error installing rspec (gem install rspec) on Windows

I am using Windows 7 and trying to install rspec, but I get the following error when I type gem install rspec into the terminal.

ERROR:   Could not find a valid gem 'rspec' <>=0>, here is why:
           Unable to download data from https://rubygems.org/ - SSL_connect SYSCA
LL returned=5 errno=0 state=SSLv2/v3 read server hello A <https://rubygems.org/l
atest_rspecs.4.8.gz>
ERROR:   Possible alternatives: rspec

I've looked all over the internet for a solution, but I haven't managed to find anything.

The "SSL" part of the error message sounds similar to this issue with the certificates you have locally and the certificate that rubygems.org is using. There are specific instructions for Windows that show you how to download an updated certificate file and use it; it might be worth a shot.
