[izpack-devel] Shortcut Panel Crashes on Windows 2000

I wanted to bring this up here before I submitted it as a bug, since I
have no debugging info (it just crashes!). I've included my
shortcutSpec.xml at the bottom of this e-mail, in case there's
something I missed that could create a problem.
I'm using a shortcut panel as the last functional step in installing my
program. It works fine on Windows XP, but whenever I get the
ShortcutPanel on Windows 2000, when I click "Next", instead of getting
shortcuts, my computer reboots. As you can imagine, this means I can
either not support Windows 2000 or come up with really crazy work
around.
Has anyone else seen this behavior?
I've got working directories set, but the shortcuts are to .vbs files
that don't really need environment variables. They figure out where
they are and then run .bat files in the same directory with a few
arguments the .vbs scripts figure out on their own. I'm not using
special icons (just the standard .vbs icon) either.
Any ideas on this would be helpful. I think it's likely a bug of some
kind, but I'm once again working on very little sleep for a number of
days, so I could be missing the extremely obvious.
Thanks!
Hal
