Best technology for agent/web server architecture

[Florencio Cano]

I have control over agent and client but I'm not sure how to use
pickle for this task. Do you suggest to pickle the objects that I want
to send and send it over a usual socket? I have searched a bit in
Google and I have seen that Pickle is insecure by default. What do you
think about this?
