I was asked to remodel a website, and decided to check its rank on alexa. Surprisingly, there are many, many different websites linking to it, none relevant.

One particular thing about it is that none of these urls work, and they all display the exact same error when accessed, which to me is a very good indication that this is some sort of linking scheme. (besides the somewhat obvious names, it even says scheme in one of the urls !?)

If so, how should i proceed about this website?
What can i do if this is in fact a scheme, how can this hurt the website, what types of problems can i face, and what can i do about it?

: Succesful hits on favicon are 49.9% as shown by Awstats, But 404s don't display favicon error. What's wrong? On Awstats, one of the sections displays as it follows: Successful hits on favicon.ico

: Is there a way to record scrollbar movement? Simply put, I would like to know if customers are looking at the whole page or not, to decide whether I should rearrange the content, moving it

It does sound like some sort of scheme. The problems with such practices are discussed in this thread about buying back links.

If these sites are dead, there may not be anything to worry about, but if you wish to be sure you could use link disavowal tools in Google and Bing WMT to indicate that you don't wish to be associated with them.
