Re: IE Icon Help
No?
I am running at 32 bit. And my IE icon in my taskbar is fine, it is just the one on my desktop. I had a problem with this on my other computer with that game too, it would change the IE icon.

Re: IE Icon Help
It changes from the .exe icon to a shortcut to the .exe?? Are you sure the first isnt a shortcut also? Does it reset if you restart your pc?
I would try these methods:
Try replacing the second icon with a copy of the first by right clicking the icon > change icon.
You may also want to remove the little shortcut arrows for a cleaner look by doing this or using TweakUI.

Re: IE Icon Help
NO. It does not change it to the shortcut, only to that 256 color mode icon. I am running Windows XP Professional. And you cannot change the icon, because clicking properties brings up internet properties, because it is not a shortcut.. And yes it still opens IE, the Icon just changed from a 32 bit color icon, to a 256 color icon..
EDIT: Deleting my "Icon Cache" in my Application Data did nothing, I deleted it, and refreshed my desktop and nothing happened, so I just restored it.

Re: IE Icon Help
Alright, I fixed it using Style XP to roll back my icons to the original XP installation. But I still would like to know why only that icon changes?

Re: IE Icon Help
Strange that it's doing it to your IE icon. AoE2 used to do that to my Outlook Express icon but never the IE one. I dont think I ever fixed it though :no:. Dont remember, it's been a loooong time.
