Yes, though I preferred to check some of them to see if they can be corrected

In the ACP > Rebuild Caches.
In the front end list you can also tick the select all box, but i think that probably has to be done page by page.

You will be left with the bbcode. But I think you can remove/change that with this:

Like Soundcloud! That's the worst one for me. I'm sure 90% of the soundcloud links on my site were dead, as people put up audio tracks then delete them a couple of months later (or Soundcloud deletes them)

I've put this on my dev domain and am testing it for now. I selected one forum with about 80,000 posts to see how it goes. It's been running for a few hours. When it says:
check new urls - 5,070
does this mean it has gone through 5,070 posts and it needs to go through another 75,000 more? Or does this mean out of the 80,000 posts in this forum it has checked 5,070 links. It's probably an indication of the total threads it is going through as I don't think I would have that many links in this particular forum.
I have 1.7 million posts so this might take weeks to run. I'm sure it will be worth it in the end but I may set up a stand alone computer to leave this running. Performance hit seems minimal at this stage as I have a 24core server and load is only 0.30 and memory usage under 40%.
It seems though that it should do a quick scan for urls and then test those urls, but it seems to be going through each post 1 by one (10 at a time).
*EDIT -ok it finished, I actually did have 6,000 links in that forum so all good. This shouldn't take as long as I thought.

@au lait Can you fix this in the next release?
I have a posts with 50+ broken links and it only removes one at the time even if I select multiple.
I have to do it 50 times per post to fix all the links.
Thanks
I also had a problems when there was a post with multiple 404's, when I selected those to replace them with DLMURL's It only fixes one of them and the rest is still in the list. When I do that again another one is replaced. but never all of them.
Can someone try this and confirm?
And of course still waiting for the "Replace link with new link" feature that has been suggested is this thread.
