I am noticing some weird URLs in the Google Analytics content report. The parameters in the urls appears similar to php session ids (not sure though). Just want to make sure it is not something that is caused by any misconfiguartion or such on the site, as the urls doesn't make any sense and the normals urls on the site are quite different. Here are examples of the urls

/index.php?____pgfa=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hcHBhbmNlLmNvbS8=&s=tshirt

/index.php?q=aHR0cDovL3d3dy5hcHBhbmNlLmNvbS9jYXRlZ29yeS9hbmRyb2lkL2Rlc2lnbi92aWV3cy8=


If there was one or two entries like this I would have normally ignored, but I am seeing too many entries like this to be a bit concerned. What is the reason behind this? Thanks.
