No, you only need the 1.31 patch.
I don't know which program you use for extracting .zip archives, and I guess you're working on MS-Windows. Maybe the easiest way is to create a new, empty folder and extract the patch to that folder.
I don't know if any new folders are created by unzipping the patch, but just click through until you get to the folder containing the new uplink.exe file. Select everything in this folder, copy it, and then paste it into the folder where your old uplink.exe is... The uplink.exe file must be overwritten by the new version (as must any other old files)...
After you've overwritten the files, you should be able to start Uplink the same way as before (desktop shortcut or from the start menu, I think).
And you will have to create a new user to use the features of the patch...
