The domain names are horribly offensive - can we remove them from our statistics package?

You can block them with an .htaccess file or by modifying your apache config file by blocking the referrer so they get a 404.
Pretty 'interesting' referrers, eh what? That's been going on for quite a while. This version I don't use for reasons stated in earlier posts, but in the last version I just edited the template for the referrer page and essentially didn't show referrers until I figured out how to blocked the referrers. I also ended up blocking a large block of IPs from the major Israel telecom because most of them on my site came from it or through it. That did screw things up a bit for several users, but it stopped most of the porn referrers back then (about a year or so ago).
