Can't install Socket.IO on Windows 7 (x32)

I've been trying to install the Socket.IO module for Node.js without success, The first time I tried by installing with the following npm command:

npm install Socket.IO

It didn't work, then I tried by downloading their github repository as a zip file, placing it into the node_modules folder, extracting the file into a folder named "Socket.IO" and trying again the command:

nmp install Socket.IO

Neither worked, I renamed the folder because probably had the same name as the default root I showed before, neither worked.

BOTH cases, gives me this output:

Socket.IO error.

I'm guessing that the second form tries to download the sources instead of installing from the folder I specify. What could it be? A connection error? it says "SSL Error: CERT_UNTRUSTED", should I configurate the type of connection or something else? or even better, is there any easier way to install Socket.IO?

Make sure your npm is updated, if it is you could try npm config set strict-ssl false to ignore the error.

It seems this is related because npmjs.org changed certificate.
