VS.NET Setup Creation: shortcut problem

Hi, I have a solution with bunch of projects. and one of them is a setup for
the rest of the projects.
all works fine.. except when i create shortcuts in my setup project to
'Primary Outoput' project, and when the shortcut is created, when i click
the short cut, it first launchs the setup again, then if i hit cancel, it
then launchs the .exe it was suppose to point to.
anyone know why it re-launches the setup each time..

i right clicked the shortcut in windows, and it seems to be picking the
Setup project as the target.

i have checked all the properties of the shortcut before i build and
everthing looks fine
