<p>Hey im trying to install Grunt using NPM manager and i seem to be having connection issues  timing out i searched some online. i can hit this URL <a href="https://registry.npmjs.org/grunt" rel="nofollow">https://registry.npmjs.org/grunt</a>  just fine it will ask me if i want to save or run GRUNT.JSON and if i cut and paste that URL i will see the contents of that JSON in a gigantic array</p>
