>The implication of this that if Suzie logs in to XP (Suzie is just a regular user, not an administrator) and runs my VFP EXE, the EXE can create/modify shortcuts in the ALL User's Group. As I understand it, regular user Suzie cannot open Windows Explorer in XP and see the folder that has the icons for all users. All non-administrator Suzie can do without WSH/my VFP EXE is create/modify her shortcuts.

Tim,
I believe so, but am not sure. I've only worked on machines that I have full administrator rights to.
I believe, however, that this is the case based on my limited knowledge of Windows security policies.
