   One of my hubs has a black triangle with an exclamation mark inside it.
   This is supposed to mean link is bad (or not working) on the hub marked,but I how can I tell which link it is.
   Do I need to check them all out?

   When you put the hub in Edit mode, the link will be highlighted in yellow.

   That is not a malicious link, that is a broken link.

   I noticed recently too that HP is reporting broken links that aren't actually broken.
   It's easiest to go to My Account ~> Broken Links, and repair them from there.
   I'm finding that just asking for a re-check is sorting them.

   Hey Eagle, I had a few broken links today and fixed them the same way you did, by editing the hubs.
   
   
   
   Edit: Btw- the symbol disappeared off my statistics page. All you have to do is refresh the page.

    This looks more like a bug than actual broken links, an unusual number of broken links have popped up today and manual checking and fixing is difficult, I have just reported the problem to team HP.

    I think it must be a bug as well...
    
    Why would HP take my flagging accolade off my site, after all the work I do fighting trolls and flagging spammers?
    
    There's certainly something malicious about that!

    sometimes the triangle shows up and the links are fine. I can't get rid of two of them even though the links are fine.
