86513 2002-10-06 01:53:00 If I want to change Links or Favourite file Icons, the Right click properties Icon box presents me with no more than 4 lousy options.
1. Is there a free source of a greater range of such icons and
2 if so could you please walk me through the procedure to get them after I've downloaded them into the Icon Box. thanks Willbry

86514 2002-10-06 02:31:00 I did a quick search on Google for "IE favorite icons" and came up with many links to sites that explain all about them and also some sources for icons. This page (www.fortunecity.com) has a good explanation of how to go about it. Rod J (451)
86515 2002-10-06 04:43:00 You're in luck! I just received a link to this page (www.website-designs.com) yesterday that has a bunch of icons for Links.

My Internet Tip had this to say about it:

Changing Link Icons in Microsoft Internet Explorer 6

If you use the Links bar in IE 6, you may like to change
the icons to something more meaningful--or more attractive.
To do this, right-click the link you want to change and
choose Properties. When the dialog opens, click Change
Icon. Now, click Browse and locate a suitable new icon.

We keep a special Icon folder for our collection of icons
and usually choose a new icon from this folder.You'll find
some free to use icons at the above link.

Have fun. :-)

Cheers
