Edit the bst file (make a copy of it with your own name).  In a style  
file here, I have

FUNCTION {format.url}
{ url empty$
     { "" }
     { new.block "URL \url{" url * "}" * }
   if$
}

I think changing this to

FUNCTION {format.url}
{ url empty$
     { "" }
     { "" }
   if$
}

will suppress the URL.  However, I don't have TeX installed on this  
machine, so can't test this myself :).  Alternately, you could go  
through and delete all of the calls to the format.url function.
