Windows 2003 Symlinks (MkLink)
Currently this only supports symlinking folders from network shares to local paths, helping bring vagrant to Windows 2003.
This implements the behavior specified in my stack overflow answer (go vote it up) http://stackoverflow.com/a/18593425/18475
You call it the same way you do for folders on other versions of windows, mklink /d sometargetfolder \some\shared\folder
And before you ask, this should also work on Windows XP.
Prerequisites:
You need Visual C++ Redistributable for VS2005 SP1 installed (which is not yet a chocolatey package).

In cases where actual malware is found, the packages are subject to removal. Software sometimes has false positives. Moderators do not necessarily validate the safety of the underlying software, only that a package retrieves software from the official distribution point and/or validate embedded software against official distribution point (where distribution rights allow redistribution).
Chocolatey Pro provides runtime protection from possible malware.
