Default Delete Shortcut with Code

I am trying to delete all shortcuts that have "log" in them on the desktop
(Win2k). I have unsuccessfully tried the following code:

Kill "C:\Documents and Settings\username\Desktop\*log*.lnk"

I know these shortcuts exist, and my code simply won't delete them. Using
this syntax, even if I put the exact name of the known-to-exist shortcut
(i.e., "Mylog.lnk"), the code does not delete it. Any suggestions, guys?

TIA
