Download TweakUI for Windows XP from Here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx

After you install it, start it (Start > All Programs > 
Powertoys for Windows XP > Tweak UI). Click the plus 
sign beside Explorer to expand it and click on Shortcut.  
Then you can choose between the regular arrow, light 
arrow, none, or a custom overlay on your shortcuts.
