Thanks, 
I did manage to make REFEXCLUDE work but needed to use *.* and *:* to
catch all the "odd" referrers.  REFINCLUDE "" is more elegant.

What I am trying to find out is what pages are bookmarked or typed in by
the user.  I was hoping to display this information on our standard log
report, rather than having to run two reports for each sub site.  But
alas it seem this is not possible.
I was not aware that it is possible to turn off a referrer in the
browser.  I've had a look around my browsers and it seems that opera has
this feature, I couldn't find it in mozilla, Netscape and IE.
