Yahoo Site Explorer 'Report Spam' beta

    Just checking the stats of my sites at siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com, when I noticed the edition of a new button. When checking on the inlinks to my verified sites I'm given the option to report any link listed as 'SPAM'.

    Hmmm, wonder how this would effect my site's ranking, since they are linking to me. Furthermore, how could this effect competitors. Lastly...I wonder if this is in any kind of response to Google's 'paid link' witch hunt?

    Did you check the inlinks on your 'verified' sites?

    I have checked my site with site explorer on yahoo too, and didn't see that link, only "Explore URL".
    Where is that SPAM link located ?

    Again, it's right beside a link, when you hover over. Although, it is only visible when it is on a verified site that I'm checking.
