Subclass FileChooser and overwrite the setCurrentDirectory method with:
public void setCurrentDirectory(File dir)
File f = new File(".lnk");
ShellFolder folder = ShellFolder.getShellFolder(f);
if(folder.isLink())
dir = folder,getLinkLocation();
super.setCurrentDirectory(dir);
ShellFolder is not part of the public API, it can be found in the sun.awt.shell package, this class is availible in the Sun VMs and also the one from IBM (atleast the last time I checked it), other VMs may not have the class.
