You need to have program that has transparency.
Then make a transparent 32 pixel square. It needs to be
a bitmap. Then change the file association to .ico. I put
the Homemade Icons in a folder with a file that I found
on line that allows the icon to work, when you use the
change icon feature. If you don't have the photo or
paint program, then email me and I will send you the
invisible icon and the file to make it work.
