Description
Don't you hate it when newly installed/updated applications ruin your pristine desktop with their filthy shortcuts without your permission?  :mad:
Are you tired of manually deleting said shortcuts off your desktop over and over again?   :'(
Introducing "Desktop Maid", the clever little application that will keep your desktop clean once and for all!  :Thmbsup:


* It will automatically monitor your desktop and move any newly detected shortcuts into its "JunkBin" folder where they will remain out of sight until you choose otherwise.
* Did I mention that "Desktop Maid" is clever? That's right, it will only get rid of shortcut files and will not touch anything else.
* You can always restore and exclude any shortcuts that it "deleted" so you can keep your desktop exactly the way you like it!
* What are you waiting for? Download now!!  :P
