Can links indexed by google "link:" be bad?

Or this is like a good example shown by google. We are cleaning our links from Penguin and dont know what to do with these ones. Some of them does not look quality.

Hey, I have never seen it stated that links that are shown under a link query are inherently good or bad. Use your gut here, if the link looks bad, it likely is bad and even if it has not been tied up into your penguin problems now, who is to say it won't be picked up on the next update?

If the link is clearly manipulative or has potential to be toxic then getting rid of it is the best long term solution irrespective of whether it is shown in a link: query or not.

Hope that helps!
