imagegrabscreen
If you just want to take a screenshot of a website WITHOUT the ugly IE window around it, the easiest way is setting the "Fullscreen" property to TRUE.
$browser->Fullscreen = true;
This is basically the same as pressing F11 once the browser is open, so you just get the actual website.
