Nup, you cannot stop NTFS from listing the files. There is a technet article that explains differences between Novells file system and NTFS. The way around this would be to have a separate folder for each shortcut. The folder would still be visible, but the shortcut won't be.

I have many types of users connecting to my Citrix farm. Some receive the full desktop some only receive published applications depending on their needs. The published desktop is extremely locked down and only provides the programs they need. Within the desktop the programs are provided by a redirected start menu. I am using NTFS permissions to control what a user can access on the start menu. My problem is if I have two applications (or more) within a single folder on the start menu and the user only has NTFS permissions to access one he can still see both. The application that he does not have access to shows up but he cannot run the application. Is there anyway using NTFS permissions to keep the icon he does not have access to from showing up? If I recall correctly this is kind of a NTFS permissions problem. Within Novell if you don’t have access to a file you don’t see it but within Windows you can still see the file. I’ve enclosed a small photo so you can see the actual problem. Thanks very much for your help!!
