Hi

I would like to change some of the icons for things on my desktop like the recycle bin Etc.

Can anybody recommend a good website that has spyware/virus free icon downloads?

I was looking through my old webuser magazines when I saw a page on icons but none of the links seem to work anymore

Thanks

I downloaded some icons. However when I unzipped the package I downloaded the files were PNG Files and when I tried to use them it said please use icon files.

How do I get them to work?

Strange, just downloaded a few, unzipped, and they are .ico files (Icons)
