I am not sure what you are asking here. There is no way to hide URLs from
LWP that are not hidden from any web browser. Certainly, client-side
scripting such as JavaScript can make gathering URLs a bit more difficult,
but if you know JavaScript, it can be figured out without much trouble
(usually). Trussing Netscape seems like more work than should be necessary.
