[3.3.3.] Strange URLs in my Stats>Referered B-hits tab

My b2evolution Version: 3.3.3.

I get a lot of refereral URLs that have no link to my sites. Random places like movie download sites, mp3 sites, hair care products, sites about nannies, sites in foreign languages, etc. I follow the link back to them and can't find a link to my site anywhere. Curious if this is sign that someone has hacked into my site or is somehow using my site to hide their own identity/ip? Could this be from legitimate users?

Thanks.

They're just faked referrers. I'd get used to them -- unless you want to bog your system down by verifying every referrer that comes along.

so, are they bad? Do they represent people looking at my site? or are they some sort of hacker or spam?
Thanks for the reply.

That's spam. There's a link to blacklist those referrers.
