It depends on how they hurt you. If it was a relationship that went badly then I think it is fine to talk to them, just talk to them, on a very casual and not too intimate level. You shouldn't put yourself in a situation where you think you'd get back with them though. So, if you aren't positive that you don't want to get involved I wouldn't talk to them.
Sometimes you can have good friendships with someone who you should have never been in a relationship with.
I guess I don't really know your situation though. Good luck.
I tend to go with the past is the past for a reason. Unless there is some very good reason to give them another chance. If you do let them back into your life and they hurt you again, I say kick them to the curb as soon as it happens, no questions asked. Second chances are sacred to me.
Good luck with the decision.
Oh and I came her to say that I often call me kitty, Lucy, by your screenname--she can be a little devil.
