WiX internet shortcut icon missing?

Question

I am using WiX 3.0.5301.0 I have code like

<Component Id="ApplicationShortcut" Guid="{0F889915-B241-414d-A5F6-E956AA60AAFD}">
  <util:InternetShortcut
    Id="Home"
    Directory="DesktopFolder"
    Name="Joy of Setup"
    Target="http://joyofsetup.com" />
</Component>

the shortcut appears but the internet shortcut icon does not appear? It is a blank windows icon? My user are gonna ask me where is the link on the desktop?

Any ideas? Did you have any issues? Does it work ? Is it a bug in this specific version? Should I upgrade? Rob? alloooo
