Are there any good plugins to help fix broken links?

Google Webmaster Tools and a few site scans are turning up some 404s and broken links on a company's 12+ year old Wordpress blog. Lots of legacy content that needs cleaning - any good plugins to automate this, or is this best served as a manual seek-and-destroy type of exercise?

Thanks!
