These can sometimes be introduced by dependencies (though some of these strangely seem to come from plugins that shouldn't be introduced).
Using Archiva will help - you can have your Maven install locked to using that no matter what repositories are encountered, and then use the proxying combined with white/blacklists to control what comes from which remote repository.
