That's not my experience.  I always uncheck "Create Desktop Icon" (since
I prefer my icon in the QuickLaunch toolbar), but it's always checked
again next time I run setup.  [This is on Win2K with everything up to date.]
I've just got used to this, along with various other setup.exe quirks.
A while ago the quirks made it difficult to use, but now they are few
in number and easy to live with (except the lack of resizing -
I'm eagerly awaiting the promised enhancement here).
