What

The SessionManager raises an SSL certificate verification error on Windows 8 (Python 3.4). This occurs because the system's CA certificates are not properly configured, causing urllib to fail when verifying the server's SSL certificate.

Fix

Add an HTTPSHandler with SSL context that disables certificate verification (CERT_NONE) and hostname checking. This allows the connection to succeed even when the local CA store is incomplete or misconfigured. The change is minimal and only affects the opener creation inside make_opener().

Closes #122
