How do I stop shortcuts following moved folders on Windows Server

If I move a folder (to temporarily stop people running programs in that folder), the desktop shortcuts they use to access those programs sometimes follow the folder. Is there any way to stop this behaviour?

This is on Windows machines.

To duplicate the behaviour…

1. Create a text file on your desktop.
2. Create a shortcut to that file.
3. Rename the original file.
4. Double-click the shortcut.

there is a service called distributed link tracking server and client wich are responsible for the behaviour you are observing
