Based on your post, you have the url slightly wrong. You're missing the colon after http. It should be:

http://localhost:3000/

I'm not familiar with using Rails in a Windows environment, but judging from your post it sounds like you're able to run the Rails server just fine. With the Rails server running, when you try to view http://localhost:3000 in any browser what messages do you see in the Cmder window (or whatever console you're using)?

Not sure if you'll want to do this, but I just read this forum thread that mentions that Treehouse's Workspaces supports Rails. Here's the forum thread if you haven't seen it:
