Changed Admin folder name, but no links work now..

Recently installed Zen Cart. Is going great so far. I read the list of security patches, and one of them was "v138_20090619".

In there it says I should also rename the admin folder to something else. If I do that, though, none of my links work. For example, I wanted to go to Tools - Template Selection, but got an error message. I've since renamed the folder back to Admin so it works again.

What to do?

When you change the admin folder name, you have to edit admin/includes/configure.php to change all three mentions of 'admin' to your new name.
