Traffic flow going through homepage, /default.aspx, and /index.htm - How do I fix this?
-
In the Google Analytics visitor flow section, most of my traffic is starting off on the homepage, but a significant portion somehow is being directed to /default.aspx, as well as a minor fraction at /index.htm - see the attached image for what this looks like.
My questions are, why is this happening, is it negatively affecting the site, and should I just fix it through a filter in Analytics or consult IT? Navigating to the /default.aspx page in the address bar simply returns a blank screen. Any idea of what's going on here?
The logo in the top left corner of the site directs to /index.htm, so I think I have that issue solved, but /default.aspx is definitely stumping me. The server currently runs on Apache, though I don't know if it always did.
My standard method of simply Googling the problem didn't give me any definitive answers, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your site's URL would help...

I can't find any link to default.aspx, but the fact that the page actually loads (even blank), shows that for some reason traffic is going there.
What I find weird, is that default.aspx doesn't have the Analytics tracking code in it, therefore GA shouldn't know that traffic is even flowing there.
Check if default.aspx has some code in it, if it actually does something, and if it doesn't, just delete the file.

Well there's nothing in the page source.
No clue what to make of it. Here's another screencap from Analytics.
