Notes
There were some questions about viewing the Desktop shortcut files. For those who do not know yet, the shortcut files in your Windows Desktop is NOT a binary files. It’s just a plain text file which content the information about how to run and what icon that should display where the icon itself reside in another binary file. This applied to PIF and LNK extension files.

Hey Danny,
Don’t want to sound sarcastic, but it would be nice if the download link was actually there.
