   Quoting venerable Otto42 here:

   The error is that your code is no longer valid with Wordpress 2.1 and up. Change it to use the new wp_list_bookmarks function instead.

   Venerable? Wow.

   trblclef: Your theme used custom code to display the Links in your sidebar. That custom code is no longer valid. You can replace it with some form of a wp_list_bookmarks() function call to get the Links to display again. Or look for an updated version of your theme.
