As far as I understand your problem :

You don't want the browsers to be already open but on click of some button.

If that is the case, Currently navigateToURL(request); is in the constructor of bAEForm class.

Move it into a click event, Something like this :

myButton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_CLICK, 

          function(e) { navigateToURL(request); }, false,0,true);

where myButton is the button instance on click of which you want the browser to open.

if you want to navigate to URL when the button is clicked you code should something like this:

package {

    import flash.display.SimpleButton;
    import flash.display.Sprite;
    import flash.net.navigateToURL;
    import flash.net.URLRequest;
    import flash.net.URLRequestMethod;
    import flash.net.URLVariables;

    import flash.events.MouseEvent;

    public class bAEForm extends SimpleButton {

        public function bAEForm() {
            this.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clickHandler);
        }

        private function clickHandler(event:MouseEvent)
        {
            var url:String = "http://www.google.com";
            var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest(url);

            var variables:URLVariables = new URLVariables();
            variables.exampleSessionId = new Date().getTime();
            variables.exampleUserLabel = "guest";
            request.data = variables;
            request.method = URLRequestMethod.POST;

            navigateToURL(request);
        }
    }
}

You can't use navigateToURL function in the constructor
