Desktop Shortcuts Keep Disappearing/Deleting Randomly

$

I have recently moved from from XP Pro to Windows 7 Pro and I am having a particular problem regarding desktop shortcuts:

I have many shortcuts on my desktop for quick access to my companies 2 large global network drives, however, at random Windows seems to delete all of my shortcuts to any network folder! With having about 15-20 shortcuts this is causing me considerable time and pain having to find the folders and creating new shortcuts; so i have 2 questions: 

1. Is there any way to stop this happening or is it a bug in the system?

2. Is there a quick way to backup and restore desktop shortcuts?

FYI - I use my Laptop both On and Offline from the my companies network, in addition I sometimes connect to the companies networks via a VPN; maybe this is causing an issue.

Hopefully someone out there can help me?!

Cheers.
