the difference is that is uses shell32.dll directly http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/shellcc/platform/shell/reference/objects/shelllinkobject/shelllinkobject.asp

this way, there is no dependency of wsh nor shortcut.exe nor the bugs of softlink()

once I get this done, I think I'll replace the softlink with this.
