    I recently installed the commercial copy of Windows 7 as a Parallels VM. After installation, the Windows screen was covered with icons which are not shortcuts. They are linked to icons on my Mac desktop. If I delete one in Windows, it is deleted on my Mac. In the properties, the file location is listed as "\\.psf\Home\Desktop". Some of the icons are system files and if I try to delete them in Windows, it says that I don't have permission to do so.

    How can I get these icons off my Windows desktop?
