Offers all the functionality you're looking for and complete flexibility to display web links sorted by category. A terrific job!
To respond to the previous review, if you elect the option of displaying thumbnails of sites you're weblinking to then yes, it can be a little slow but that's due to response time from the external sites, not the fault of this module. If you have a lot of links, it's easy enough to turn off this feature. Or you might try caching the contents of the module, found in the module's Advanced Parameters settings.

If you allow all the features, especially the "thumbs" and the external link (http://mozshot.nemui.org/, the thing crawls. Loading was extremely slow on my site, until I turned almost everything off.
