Hi,

I'd like to suggest making the default state of the desktop shortcut
checkbox in setup.exe unchecked. This would make it follow Microsoft's
desktop guidelines at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa511450.aspx . I don't know
about other people but it often irritates me that I need to uncheck it
each time because I don't like application icons on the desktop.
