Hi!

You should try Resource Hacker. It's a program that you can edit exe/dll/ ocx files with. [href]http://rpi.net.au/~ajohnson/resourcehacker

If the above URL address doesn't work, you should search for the program using a standard search engine like google.com.

IMPORTANT: you can only make 16 colour icon for your exe because using higher color depth will increase the file size of your icon and the size of your exe. This forces the exe not to run.

Have Fun

no, dont bother with that, thats stupid and time wasting (no offence proof88 ), just make a shortcut to your exe, then righthand click on ur shortcut, then go to properties, then click on change icon, then click on browse, then browse your image, then it should have changed.
