Easiest way to change windows icons?

As above really. I don't want to have to manually change each icon but also don't want to install a program to do it for me. Is there any alternative?

I just cba to do it manually because when I did change the icons it just didn't seem to work properly for some icons in certain places like the start bar and folder toolbar.

Installing a program seems like the ideal thing to do now I think about it. Is there any program that willlet me use existing icon packs I have?

Hi there

Thanks. Does the job!
Anyone know How I can change the Mozilla and VLC icon?

How do I go about changing them in the first place icon tweaker won't do it.

I can change shortcuts by right clicking and manually changing them but I want to change the default icon for mozilla and vlc so the icon I want shows up in the taskbar.

To make xp look like I want it too?

I just don't like the looks of xpize and tango. ATM I've used reshack to change the volume icon and a few other things my main problem is I can't find any comprehensive icon packages the change most of the icons.

I'd also like to know if anyone knows how I can change the windows icon in every window and the go button in every window with reshack.

Anyone have any idea how to do this?^

Also I installed xpize briefly then uninstalled it but it hasn't changed everything back to default e.g. when copying files the progress bar has all the xpize icons ect and there are a few other things. Will reinstalling then uninstalling fore me to loose all my custom icons?
