This has just about always happened for me for Watir, it just has not been a problem until now. The "[1]" shows up in the name in the popup box that asks if you want to save the file. I keep a directory of files that I install on my computer so I can show some history here. Watir and FireWtir gems are the only gems that show up with the "[1]" in the name, but not all of them:
watir-1[1].5.1.1145.gem watir-1[1].5.1.1158.gem watir-1[1].5.1.1192.gem watir-1.5.6.gem commonwatir-1[1].6.1.gem firewatir-1[1].6.1.gem watir-1[1].6.1.gem firewatir-1[1].0.2.gem jssh-20060221-WINNT.xpi firewatir-1[1].1.gem jssh-WINNT-2[1].x.xpi firewatir-1.2.1.gem by removing the "[1]" in the name, I could get Watir 1.6.1 to install. I have not had achance to check it out though.
