Anyone recommend a freeware program I can try (want to try all three)
that will allow me to change any icon I like.
Would like it to change especially these icons:
All drives, incl. CD/DVD
Network drives
Start Menu and Control Panel
Other icons like Windows Temp folder, Dial-up networking folder,
ActiveX cache folder, Web folders etc.
Thanks
PS - Or even an app that will install other icons in all the default
places e.g. Mac OSX icons, Foood's iCandy icons, Everaldo's Crystal
icons

I'm not sure about all of the icons on your list, but Activicons will
change most - http://www.cursorarts.com/ca_aifw.html

I've used Activeicons, but it starts by immediately changing my other
custom icons back to default. Peculiar; other than that, the program
works well.

It only runs immediately if you tell it to (that option is on its
"Interface" screen). The only reason I can see to have it start
immediately is if you are using it to display animated icons on the
desktop.

Well, hmmmm...I took its shortcut off my desktop so I wouldn't click
on it accidentally (I have > 150 shortcuts on my desktop; otherwise, I
forget that I have the programs. Must be the drugs...seriously!). I
will do what I should have done and take a peek at the instructions.

Thanks,
TW
