This paper proposes the idea of vision agents over Internet,
outlines the performance models of Live WWW with agents, and describes
an object  search agent and its communications with other agents.
The goal is to reduce the traffic on the Internet for Live WWW
by integrating the WWW technology, agent theory and computer vision
technology together.
