Default windows can not run this file error, the file is RUNACC~1.LNK

I am shipping an AccessXP runtime application that uses both mde and mdb
files. One of my customers is reporting an error when they click the startup
icon...

Windows can not run this file error, the file is RUNACC~1.LNK

I suspect malware may be at work, but a dump of the properties-target field
doesn't show anything weird. Has anyone else encountered this sort of problem
in the past? If so, how did you fix it?

Thanks!

The .LNK extension is the extension for a shortcut. Judging by the filename,
I'd guess that the shortcut points to a different file location.
