The shourtcut files are simple text files whith *.lnk extensions, a simple text editor can do the job.

gnick66: Hogy vagy?

anyway, he'd like 2 change icon ie. ugly default m$hit icon or another exam is TT. to some other (from sbsh.net for exam) editing lnk wont do the trick. at first icon must be encapsulated in dll or icl and then. Or u can change icon in exe thru reshacker.

You're right, about that, I misunderstood a bit... The *.lnk files only use the icons provided to them by the targeted program. So editing that won't do you any good :(
