100's of .info links pointing to my site

Hi, in the past few weeks 100's of .info links appeared in WMT pointing to my site. Should I be worried about these links ? What can I do to block them ?
Thanks

It is recommend you try to get in touch with the webmasters of the sites before going down the disavow route.
I second this as well. Disavow is not a plan A, but an plan B, C, D. In the process of link cleaning

Google will not, It is recommend you try to get in touch with the webmasters of the sites before going down the disavow route.
Before you go about mass link removal make sure the following is true : Are the links doing you damage ?

Hi, my site is a fairly new site, by doing the disavow in a early stage, google wont think that it has a penalty or something right ?

Does Open Site Explorer show juice passing links
I'm a little confused between all the link types. Internal / External - easy Linking Root Domain - easy Followed / No followed - easy But then there's talk about "juice passing links" and I can't quite get how this is defined, and why it's something you can get from the API, but not from Open Site Explorer... or can you get that info from OSE?

New Site Checklist - Links and Social Aspects
Hi I have a new site which launched around 6 weeks ago, new domain name with a partial keyword match on it, so its going to be a long process but one which I want to tred along the right path for long term results What I am looking for is a checklist if possible on sites that the site (which is a UK based home improvments company) should be listed on? The difficulty is because it can seem a boring subject (windows and doors) it makes it difficult to find authentic quality links, especially with no big budgets or pools of article writers I have registered against the likes of Brownbook, Yelp, Yell.com, Qype, Google Places covering the local aspect but what about the general external links Is it advisable to stay away from directory listings, blog comments, forum posts etc which is what a lot of the competition are doing (weatherseal .co.uk anglianhome .co.uk etc

What are some good easy links to get for new sites?
We are in the process of launching a couple of new sites and while we know it will be a long process to get them to rank, achieving some long-tail keywords would be beneficial. What sites would you recommend for getting some easy links to start with that can help the indexation and ranking process along in the preliminary stages? Or another way to put the question - when you launch a new site, what steps do you go through?
