Windows shortcuts are Shell (ie GUI Desktop) objects rather

As a caveat: they don't actually *have* to be called .lnk
(altho' they almost universally are). That said, I don't know
any straightforward way of otherwise distinguishing shortcut
from non-shortcut files. I think you'd just have to call
.Load on the IPersist instance and catch the E_FAIL
exception.
