Or, if you are on a Mac you can use the shareware tool ScreenCatcher from St. Clair Software <http://www.stclairsoft.com/ScreenCatcher/> and do a "Catch All", which will automatically do what Aardvark describes below, then allow you to save the output as a .tif, .jpg, .gif, .bmp or a few other formats. When capturing a web page, you can choose if you want the chrome or just the inner window.
I think it's about $35, but we use it all the time for doing screen captures for print and the web and have found it to be well worth it...
