Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>customize (more info?)

I created a standard icon using an icon editor and thought it would be
a snap to replace the icon for a .exe file I have with the new one.
It's not. Replacing folder or shortcut icons is easy, but not so with
..exes.

I downloaded the freeware "resource hacker" program, which has been
widely recommended for this task, but can't get it to do what I want
(replace the existing icon with one of my own creation).

Could someone please post, step-by-step, how to do a .exe icon
replacement, either using standard stuff from Windows, or using
Resource Hacker, or using some other freeware program?
