FWIW...

LWP::UserAgent::Parallel is only used by checkForOpenProxy(). That's the function that scans a few common HTTP proxy ports on the current user's IP address to see if that IP is running an open proxy, and if so, limits access in some way. As I recall, you can't post anonymously from a proxy or something like that.

It's been moderately-helpful on Slashdot, but it's not an absolute necessity or anything. If you want, strip out that function and calls to it, delete Slash::Custom::ParUserAgent, and remove L::U::P from the list of install requirements.
