When I first choose and apply a Theme I get all of the Themes icons, but, the System icons (My Computer, Network Places & Recycle Bin) revert back to the default ones. Any Ideas??
 
I had a similar problem & posted what I found here:

The fix is:

Start -> Run -> Regedit

Navigate to:
"HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Clsid"
(HKCU = HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT)

Right-click the folder icon for this key & select 'Permissions'

Click 'Advanced' -> click 'Add' -> type "System" -> click 'OK'

Put a check in the 'Deny' column for the 'Set Value' permission.

'OK' your way out.

My custom icons are staying put & I haven't seen any adverse effects.
