Why are there graphical distortions when using a screen capture tool website?

Igor Rizvi? asks:

I’m having trouble with my display picture on my old Hyundai monitor. It is showing some strange line distortion when I’m surfing http://prntscr.com/ix51v. I have tried switching to my on-board graphics, but it stays the same. Does this mean I will have to buy a new monitor soon?

If it is the hardware, you should be seeing the same thing everywhere. Every website, every application, even on your desktop.

Bruce is right. If you only see it in one website so there is no need to worry, but if you see this distortion on other application or simply on your desktop so you can look on the hardware side.
