When installing both Thunderbird 1.0.2 and Firefox 1.0.4 on a Windoes 98 SE
system, the installer asks (among other things) whether I want it to put a
shortcut on the desktop -- but when I uncheck that option, it creates it anyway.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I'm installing both on a virgin system (just reinstalled the OS after replacing
the hard drive).



It's an OEM version of the operating system running on a Compaq Presario 1400,
if that matters.
