What does a verbose log show you?
Are you sure the transform was applied during the install (again, a verbose log will show you the command line, as well as a fleet of entries like 'Transforming [table_name] table')

I'd guess there's either a Custom Action running to create the s/c or it's being copied as a .LNK file.

The shortcut could be installed as a regular file too, search for ".lnk" in the File table.
