when placing the cursor (mouse) on the shortcut icon, it
shows the whole path where the shortcut comes from. As I
have a few programs which run from the server, I just
don't want users to know where it comes from. Anyone knows
how to hide it. Someting that I can accomplish this from
Group Policy ?? Thanks for your help

Rename the shortcut. Evidently you used the default text (the OS name of
the executable) as the title for the shortcut.

Right-click on the shortcut, choose "Rename" from the popup menu.
