Greetings,

I found that the Screenshooter.py script often returned a screenshot of an "SSL handshake" error page rather than a screenshot of a web app that I had scanned. Sometimes this was caused by self-signed certs and others because of name mismatches (IP instead of FQDN).

I found that if you added the --insecure flag cutycapt would ignore those errors and take the desired screenshot. See link below.

While I understand its generally not recommended to ignore these I feel that its better to do so to obtain the desired screenshot then a screenshot of an "SSL handshake" error page. This flag was added before the --url flag, on line 78, and was commented in the line above it.
