Since your shortcut is not starting a windows GUI program, it starts a console window, possibly executing cmd.exe It is this console windows where cmd.exe executes run.exe that you see flashing on the screen. Have you tried changing the shortcut to cause it to open the window minimized? I vaguely remember doing something like that with the cygwin.bat clone I used to start a (non-X windows) rxvt window.
