reducing referrer false-positives

Hello,

I've gotten snort to look at the data I want (finally) and are running the
most recent rev.  Now that it's taking the full brunt of our web traffic,
it's logging lots of alerts on rule hits for things in the Referrer: field
in the HTTP query.

Has someone invented a way of deleting the Referrer: data, or only looking
at the HTTP query itself to reduce the number of false positives?
