I have recently started to see a few strange entries in the referring

Am I correct in thinking this is some kind of default response from
Analog,
I don't think this is an Analog default. It sounds more likely that it's a
bogus referrer that's either being set by a worm/spider, or by someone who
has installed a "privacy" option on their browser that blocks the referrer.
and is it possible to overcome it? Basically I'm guessing the
D column in the referring site report is going to be useful for
tracking down the corresponding log entries, but what to do when I
find them?
The simplest way to investigate this is to use REFINCLUDE which wwill
restrict the report to only those entries that have that referrer, and run a
report to see if the hits are only coming from a small range of IP
addresses, and what browsers are involved.
