REFREPEXCLUDE http://www.mysite.com/*

definitely works for me. My "Referrer Report" is significantly different with that line added, because there are hundreds of "internal referrers" removed from the Referrer Report. The * is necessary to match all the different refering pages on my site.

REFSITEEXCLUDE http://www.mysite.com/ and
REFSITEEXCLUDE http://www.mysite.com both have the same small effect on my "Referring Site Report" - the top line of the report (my own site is the top referring site) disappears.

REFSITEEXCLUDE http://www.mysite.com/* doesn't work, because the * isn't part of the site name.

REFSITEEXCLUDE only effects the "Referring Site Report". REFREPEXCLUDE only effects the "Referrer Report"
