  Open up a command prompt, and check the "Desktop" directories in
each user profile (both the user, and "All Users").  Use "DIR /A" so
you can see everything.  Regular shortcuts are just *.LNK files, and
if so, you should be able to delete them with:

        DEL /A "WS_FTP Pro.LNK"

  If that isn't it, they may be "magic shortcuts".  Check the registry under:

        
\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\

for both HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
