How do i change the icon that animates when loading a page

avpeanuts,

Try here for more info, there is a guide for creating your own:


SmallBitmap is a 22 x 22 pixel bitmap and BigBitmap is a 38 x 38 pixel bitmap and are used when Internet Explorer isn't doing anything.

SmBrandBitmap (22 pixels wide) and BrandBitmap (38 pixels wide) are the animated bitmaps. There height is dependant on the number of frames in the bitmap, Height=No of frames x width, so 10 frames in SmBitmapBrand is 220 pixels and in BitmapBrand would be 380 pixels.

Each BrandBitmap is a series of either 22 x 22 or 38 x 38 bitmaps joined together vertically.

The first 4 frames are played once when Internet Explorer begins to browse and the remaining frames loop over until the browse operation is complete. If SmallBitmap or BigBitmap are absent then the first frame of the branding bitmap is used as the static branding.

Or a shareware program to do it very easily:
