Not being able to modify the shortcut is what I expected but no permissions at 
all, i.e. not being able to see it as a shortcut only as a file that the user 
can't double click to start or even have permissions to see it's icon, that is 
not what I expected.

That's expected: It's in a per-machine location so normal users can't 
modify them.
