I haven't worked with the socket library, but I think this error is because
you specified a mode of 'r' when calling makefile(). fileobj is read-only,
and you're trying to write to it.
If you just want to connect to a website, try using the urllib2 module
instead of socket. It's higher-level and handles a lot of details for
you. Here's an example:
import urllib2
request = urllib2.Request('http://www.voidspace.org.uk')
response = urllib2.urlopen(request)
content = response.readlines()
