    Why everyone needs to repeat the same thing that was posted before? Are you blind, stupid or just a spammer?

    Lol ye, That happens a lot on DP!.. Anyways, Broken link checker is a nice plugin, didn't know it existed before reading this post.

    But i think i understood the first answer! The rest was just unnecessary.

    And oh, just another thing!

    Don't delete your posts if they are indexed in google make a 301 redirect to one of your other related posts, or redirect it to your main page.

    Just a tip, then you won't loose those visitors ;)

    Best regards

    I don't know if there is a plugin that can find them all and redirect them at once, but when you have found the broken links via broken link checker, there are a lot of other plugins that makes it easy to redirect the, for instance wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-redirect-301-or-302/ (haven't tried it myself) If that doesn't work, try some of the other plugins that claim to be able to do the same, ther are a bunch of them if you serch for it.
