Comment (by RRosario):
I noticed this same problem on Vista, but not on XP. There appears to be
some sort of permissions problem. I suspect this same problem is causing
the installer to hang on some systems.

administrator.

Comment (by RRosario):
Is this issue resolved?
If not, try running the installer as administrator in XP. That resolved
the shortcut problem on Vista for me.
In any case, this should be fixed.
