I don't keep shortcuts like that on the desktop - I like a clean, uncluttered screen. Instead, I create folders to hold various types of links, and put the shortcut in the appropriate folder. (It means I have to manually clean up dead links if I uninstall things, but that's easy.) Adobe DE lives in a folder on the desktop called eBook Software, along with Calibre, eReader, Mobi, et al. I'd be quite surprised if it disappeared from there...
I'll probably stick the actual program under \Program Files\Adobe with Acrobat Reader and the like. Why Adobe couldn't do that in the first place is beyond me.

I used to do the same thing .... I had folders for my various shortcuts. Then, I would create an entry on my toolbar for each folder.
Lately, I've been using Object Dock, which sort of emulates a Mac look ... with docks that can zoom or hide away. In any event, I too love to have a nice clean desktop.
