You could also set up your own web server machine that only you have access to!
But really... have you created something so special that nobody else should be allowed to lay their eyes on it? Much of what we have with Perl today is because people have shared their code (ie. all the great modules there are to use). If your code needs to be protected due to some kind of internal security measures or something, then you might well want to get your own server too. Otherwise, if someone sees your code, maybe they'll learn something from it and become a better coder.

The question I would have is: Why are you hosting with a provider that can't secure their machines? (But I can understand wanting to take extra steps. Still, this should be the service provider's problem: to make sure your data is secure.) As others have said, there are a variety of ways to make it hard. Nothing that can make it impossible.
