I don't know about this "Dead Link" feature being in Communicator, but
maybe it was. I've used AM-Deadlink for the last ten years or so, and,
as far as I can see, there would only be a link to a Spammer page in
my address book if I put it there.
So AM-Deadlink (or the Communicator feature from years ago) could only
report me to a Spammer site if *I* had added the site first.
How was that a security risk in Communicator??

How would Communicator know that it was a dead link? It can only know by
checking it.
Or is this some feature that disabled all links unless it matched a
whitelist?
What it did was go to the site and try to get in as soon as it got a
response it would mark it as active or dead. then it listed the dead
links you could then delete the dead links. I can't remember exact
process but it worked well. Worked kind of like a Whois utility.
