Cannot install socket.io on windows Error: connect EACCESS - windows

Question

I am new to what I'm doing now (Node.js,socket.io).
I've already installed Node.js and now I'm trying to install socket.io but I am having this EACCESS error. Thank you for the help!
I'm using Windows 7 x64
I ran cmd with privileges.
and then
npm install socket.io
Here is the log:

Answer 1

EACCES means socket.io can't access a port. It might be because you don't have the privileges or the port is already used by another application. You should run this command as an administrator and/or close any process using the port socket.io is trying to access to.
I think it's:
runas /noprofile /root:Administrator npm install socket.io
