ANNOYING arrow @ the bottom L of my desktop icons!!!

Hello:

I know for a fact this can be done as I have seen a friend of mine do it. - - - - The desktop will display various shortcut icons for the software installed on your PC. In the lower L side of every icon is an "arrow"... Does anyone here know how to do this??? I I was quite ambiguous & unclear as to what I mean. I want the "arrow" GONE



Thank You,
Pleides2112

I found getting rid of the arrow with Vista Shortcut Manager was pretty easy it even lets you change what the arrow is to anything you want and the size: Download Vista Shortcut Manager, Vista Shortcut Manager 2.0 Download the only problem is, it doesn't seem to work on individual folders/shortcuts so you have to go to properties to find out if it is a shortcut or not if you decide to delete them!
