when an invalid URI is passed to <http>, the resulting IllegalArgumentException stops the scraper even if surrounded by a <try> block. eg :

<config>
  <try>
    <body>
      <http url="http://web-harvest.sf.net/ê" />
    </body>
    <catch/>
  </try>
</config>

    In this case we need to do bigger modification, so I have created Feature Request https://sourceforge.net/p/web-harvest/feature-requests/34/ which should allow to handle other exception's type than BaseException.
