Perhaps the process is still running? Spybot Search and Destroy might do the trick for you.

Just a thought - are you sure its a shortcut icon and not a program that's currently running? Whatr are the security settings on that icon?

You could also try the Desktop Cleanup Wizard
Start>Control Panel and double-click the Display icon. Click on the Desktop tab and hit the Customize Desktop button Under Desktop Cleanup, click on Clean Desktop now. The Desktop Cleanup Wizard pops up. It'll display a list of desktop icons you haven't used in awhile. Follow the instructions to delete the any icons. |
