Then, either drag it in the folder if you are allowed, or just create a new folder of your own to store downloaded icons. (When you want to change an icon, you can browse to the folder).

From: OREALLY on 21 Jul 2010 22:45 I guess there is no way to edit the "C:\WINDOWS\system32\url.dll?"

It only has four icons. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.
