possible patch

There are other applications expecting to get "explorer.exe" window when using
GetShellWindow(). An example is described here -
http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/pavely/2011/06/18/getshellwindow-vs-getdesktopwindow/

A simple solution would be to check if result of GetShellWindow is about to be
null and in that case call get_desktop_window and return that instead. See
attachment.

I don't have a test for that, but I've encountered an application which hit
exactly this problem. Using this patch I've managed to fix that one.
