make sure you have uploaded the following files and changed the YOUR_TEMPLATE folder to match the name of the custom template you are using on your site.

includes/modules/sideboxes/YOUR_TEMPLATE/links_box.php
includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/sideboxes/tpl_links_select.php
Nothing changed when I did the above that you suggested.
I went scrounging and found that there was 2 different downloads for the mod.
The one I was using was links_manager_v3-5-1.zip 386 kb
the other one I found was links_manager_v3-4-1.zip 391 kb
So I decided to overwrite the 2 files (suggested above ) from the older version and voila.. it worked.
