 * Hi there,
    I just realized a new spam of some bloggers, writing a post with links
   to one of my posts (thus creating a pingback), but then removing their post (
   thus leaving a link to them from my blog, without a trace of a link from their
   blog to mine).
 * So how about having a plugin that will only keep ppingbacks as long as the link
   back is not broken ?
 * Thanks,
    Tal
