I have a question about Change the icon for Internet Shortcuts:

I think I found a solution for this problem. At first my apollogies for my spelling because I come from Holland. What I do for this problem is the following: First I don't make a shortcut directly to the webpage (URL) but instead I SAVE the webpage (I want to make shotcut of) by "file > Save as" and then save this webpage in whatever folder. Then I shut down IE and go to my desktop. From my desktop I make a shortcut to the webpage I just saved. This is mostly a .mht or an .html file. This icon you can change by usin the rightclick on the icon and then go to "properties > change icon". I hope this will solve the problem for you.
