Hello monks
Basically i have created a socket of the type 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use IO::Socket;

$sock = new IO::Socket::INET ( PeerAddr  => 'www.yahoo.com',
                               PeerPort  =>  80,
                               Proto     => 'tcp',
                               Timeout   =>  10,
                             );

die "Socket could not be created $!\n" unless $sock;
 print $sock "GET /page?pg=somewhere.html HTTP /1.0\nUser-Agent: Mozil
+la/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows 98; ocnie5-1)\nContent-Type: t
+ext/html; charset=EUC-JP\n\n";
  while($line = <$sock>) {
     print "$line\n";
  }
exit 0;
