Correct icon does not always show up on install URL shortcut

I have an package that installs a URL shortcut to the Desktop. I have specified a custom icon but it does not consistently appear. On some installs it does, othertimes the default web icon is used instead!!!

How can I get around the problem?

Also I want to add that this problem is only observed on my Windows 7 64-bit system.

Hi,

This problem seems to be machine specific, please note that for testing setup packages it is recommended to use clean virtual machines, so you can easily restore them to different
snapshots and test multiple scenarios.

Your development machine could be corrupted as a result of multiple tests or even from previous projects that could use shared resources.
