You should be able to add arguments to the shortcut similar to how it is done for other programs and launchers. Take a look at this answer as it shows them doing so for another program, however it should work the same for you as well:

What is your intention? If you want to run the "ie4unit.exe -cleariconcache" whenever windows starts you can create a bat file with that command and save it in the startup folder in start menu:

c:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup
