You could make a simple php script that just opens the URL you want to take a
"screenshot" off and then save the output to a file, this of course require
that the file open functionalities in php allows you to open URLs. This way
you get the same result as using wget which are quite often installed on *nix
systems, but of course could be removed from systems where it's not needed or
could increase a security risk.
By the way, what is lynux? is it the new name of microsofts latest product?
