    Block them on your side, by setting a new .htaccess directive.
    I quickly searched a proper code, that should look more or less like this:

    RewriteEngine on
    # Options +FollowSymlinks
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} badsite\.com [NC,OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} anotherbadsite\.com
    RewriteRule .* - [F]
    Code (markup):
    Hope this helps :)

    I can say YES. This method has been used to block unwanted backlinks when you are unable to contact the webmaster asking for removals.

    well, you penalized don't do it, Those back links seem un-natural, so they are most likely a bad thing; you should get a wide variety of links from various sources. You should try more Forum Posting and blog commenting.

    Blog commenting also is not "safe".
