Go to Kelly's site and run the edit on line 175:

Control Panel - Display - Desktop, click Customise Desktop, and look for
the two Recycle Bin icons, full and empty. Highlight, change Icon, and
make the change to something else. OK and Apply. You can then change
back to the default ones if you want
