Look at your logfiles or google webmaster central to identify the individual links, then (unfortunately) go through each one to identify if you want the link.
If you have any links that you cannot identify, especially sitewide links on directories or unscrupulous websites, you are going to need to contact your ISP and get a firewall installed that provides and interface for you to have the functionality to block certain IP’s.
The links from the site will be rejected and eventually purged from google therefore solving your problem.
BTW – this is a very common novice wanna-be blackhat technique that is very easily fixed once you identify the sources.

Could this not be done via a DENY in .htaccess? Or is that too low-level?
