Selenium server doesn't shut down while grunt is shutting down (keepalive=true; OS=Windows7SP1)

Hi,

Base on your code I see you try to catch SIGINT and address it to shut down selenium.

Problem is that on my Windows 7 SP1 it looks like http://localhost:4444/selenium-server/driver/?cmd=shutDownSeleniumServer is not to be sent. but the 'exec' method is called because: i got "Shutting down Selenium server: http://127.0.0.1:4444" message however I didn't get "Shut down Selenium server: " message, so I need to manualy shut down Selenium server: http://127.0.0.1:4444 from my web browser to get "OKOK" output, Please contact with me to get more details.

If you don't provide more detailed information here, I have to close this issue as unreproducible.

I'm seeing this issue on Windows 8.1. I'm using grunt-protractor-webdriver alongside grunt-proctrator-runner. My protractor_webdriver config looks like this:

protractor_webdriver: {
        options: {
            path: 'path/to/chromedriver',
            keepAlive: true
        },
        default: {}
    }

When running my tests with only Chrome and "keepAlive" not set explicitly, the build fails after my tests have already passed. When setting "keepAlive" to true, I see this output:

Running "protractor_webdriver:default" (protractor_webdriver) task

Done, without errors.

However, my terminal (currently using cmder on Windows) shows that java.exe is still running in the tab, and I have to escape it manually before coming back to Windows cmd.

It looks like the http.get call on line 117 of protractor_webdriver.js is never handling a response, I assume because grunt exits before the call returns.
