You may not want to do this any more with the advent of firewalls like  
Norton's that block the HTTP_REFERER! Noticed in my 404 script. I would  
use HTTP_REFERER to determine if there was a bad link on my site, or an  
obsolete link on someone else site, or if it was direct from a typed  
address or bookmark. My logs are showing about 10% blocked and rising
