Not really...unless you upgrade the script to use STRICT and mod_perl...better yet...upgrade to Links SQL.

If I get that, will they install it for me and will I be able to keep all the addons and new features i've added over time?

Yes...but it uses less CPU/Memory/ and other server resources.

For instance, when I was using Links 2.0, the average CPU percentage use for jump.cgi was: 30% and now it is less than 10% on average.

Strict Perl and mod_perl allow you to more efficiently use server resources than standard Perl....coupled with MySQL, it is a more powerful application than flat file systems, like Links 2.0.

Read the info about Links SQL...Yes...they will install it for you (base installation with no modifications). It took me two months to upgrade all the modifications I used for Links 2.0 to Links SQL...if that gives you any idea.
