    desktop icons, Vista

    I have created a few desktop icons, using IcoFX2, and have tried to use them on some of my desktop programs. Some seem to work, and some don't. For the ones that don't, the icon I want is replaced by the default explorer icon. Any ideas what might be causing this? Thanks
