See this earlier today and I can honestly say this is the most pointless tutorial? that I have ever seen just by panning over the desk top or as said below browsing the C/ desktop you are easily found out.
Yes I can see the point of it if the short cut was for file's/ folder that where kept on and encrypted drive/ external drive that you wish access easy from the desktop once attached but this would still be an encrypted file so why hide it, really thinking of it there is no point all round for this.
Also the Duh you put forward toward Golden Earlier extremely rude why be sarcastic when you can explain your view /point on this pointless idea.

Attched the icon you should use instead of the transparent one
