Best thing to do when a sponsor goes belly up or just stops paying?

This makes me really glad that 98% of the galleries and free sites I submit are for my own sites.

I 404 everything I can find on link lists, but I'm sure I have old free sites out there from 10 years ago that have defunct links on them, its just been so many years since I built anything but for a handful of sponsors other than my own sites, and they are all still active, it isn't worth the bother.

I do know I went and changed out a ton of links when pro adult went under, since I had promoted them heavily, and switched them to my other sites on other avs systems.
