1) not sure how do you have this setup, but the directory containing
the modules should not be accessible via web
2) having a
use lib 'something';
in a script affects @INC just for this script. Which in fact is
desired. You need to do so, otherwise the modules would not be found.
You may remove the directory from the @INC after you import the
modules with
BEGIN {shift(@INC)};
(assuming you are sure the directory was NOT present in @INC before!)
but I do not see any reason to do so.
