Request: Add option to bypass SSL Certificate Verification

[mtroberts-zz]

Hi Mark,

I'm attempting to use this on a Qbt instance running under SSL using a self-signed certificate in order to register the Web UI as a handler for magnet links. This works fine for my purposes as this is just running on the local network.

When attempting to use the application however I get the following error:

Exception! The SSL connection could not be established, see inner exception. The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure.

It would be useful to add the option to bypass this check.

Platform: Windows 10. Release: 1.1

Interesting - thanks for the report. Will have a look and see if it's possible to bypass. I could add in a handler to basically approve any cert, regardless of its validity - although it would have to be an optional setting as obviously it'd have security implications.

Perfect. I did see on SO there were a few suggestions for the best ways to implement this, but it's not in my skillset to do so.

This may be fixed in the latest release. Can you try it?
