desktop icons

I'm doing a new installer that will delete any old application on a user's computer. The user may have renamed the desktop icon for these older systems. Does anyone know of a way to to read the lnk files (shortcuts for the desktop) from the installer to find out what they launch?

Thanks in advance

A detailed example has been discussed here some time ago, and posted at wiki as well.

Are you a developer who uses NSIS to distribute your application? Are you a Winamp plug-in developer who wants to use NSIS to distribute your plug-in? Have suggestions for other people like you? This is the place.
