Hi,
I think gtkmozembed is not compiled in the windows binaries. I've never
tried compiling it on windows so i don't know if it can work at all. Have
you tried installing Ruby-GNOME2 from source?

There is also an informative message (this too is pretty old) from
Christopher Blizzard here:

Yeah, for sure. I wouldn't expect that gtk widget to work on windows at all.

Thanks. But I've already know the messages.
I googled and checked all sites as possible as I find.

I understand but since there was not much discussion on this list on the
subject I thought it could be useful to share my kinowledge. I'm not a
prophet so I cannot know in advance what you've already read or not ;)

This message was particularly interesting sice it's from the author of
gtkmozembed itself and says he does not expect it to work on windows at all.
