Windows definitely does have symbolic links, starting with Vista.  (See: mklink 
/?)  There are also junctions, which are like symbolic links but only for 
directories, starting with Win2K.

Both of these are examples of reparse points.  To detect if a file or directory 
is a reparse point, call GetFileAttributes or GetFileAttributesEx, and see if 
the FILE_ATTRIBUTE_REPARSE_POINT flag is set.
