Feature Request: Only create a Desktop shortcut when doing an initial install or a custom install to a new location.

Set a flag when the installer encounters a pre-existing install location recorded in the Registry and it is installing to that location. Then later when it gets to the point of creating the Desktop icon test the state of the flag. If the flag has been set, skip creating the icon on the assumption that either one already exists or the user doesn't want one and has deleted the one from the original install.

how about a checkbox on the install applet for 'install a deskop icon'?
