I ran across this in the past which the template would break if you took the links out. What I would suggest is getting a good text editor like Notepad++ and opening all the php files in the templates and doing some basic searches related to those links.

I believe you are going to find a function that is checking those links and you can just null the function. Some template makers will have multiple checks so you may have to dig a bit further. Overall though if you have been exposed to php at all you should be able to find and eliminate the issue.

Wickedguy your are the man! Your plugin worked a snap and was easy as pie to use. I activated it and, "poof!" went my footers. It even replaced the copyright with the name of my site! So cool! Thanks so much!

LOL I joined just so I could thank and rep you!

You might even get away with replacing it with another themes footer.php file - you never know, its worked for me in the past on some occasions!

Might try Wickedguy's plugin in future as well
