I had a cool toy to change icons But a virus ate it .
Once I could manage to change a icon with winXP, but I don't remember how... I think I've openned the paint, made my icon and saved as .ico. Then I switched the .ico from the exe with my icon... BUT, I could have just dreamed that I did too , I hate when it happens...

Download resource hacker from: http://www.wilsonc.demon.co.uk/d6peresourceeditor.htm
This lets you edit all resources-such as icons, menus, version info etc. like in C++.
