Re: Ugly Vista icons on taskbar..

Or how do I change the default icon of I. E. ?
Maybe another icon will give a better resolution to the icons on the taskbar

In XP you could do that by going to:

Folder options > File types >HTML document > advanced >change icon

In Vista how you do that?

Thanks.

Ok but that's just for a single shortcut!

Doing the following in XP could change ALL Internet Explorers icons
and shortcuts globally.
That's what I want to do!

In XP you could do that by going to:
Folder options > File types >HTML document > advanced >change icon

How do you do that in Vista Please!

You only asked about IE...
I don't know how to do that globally...
perhaps with a 3rd party app?
