The homepage that CNet link to is definately not the correct one One thing I have noticed is that this program doesn't appear to play well with dual monitors. I'll try Iconoid. @Jojo: The CNet download link did not work for me, so I searched around until I found a d/l link that worked. The homepage that CNet link to is definately not the correct one

However, I always like to download products from the actual author, not a secondary website like CNET (in this case). So using the website CNET points to for the author, I discover that it appears to be in German only and is advertising a variety of choices for telephone sex and no mention of this product, history or any updates. I would be cautious of this program. I will skip the install myself. Meanwhile, you mentioned a program called Iconoid back in early 2007 that can do this task (among others) also. http://www.ghacks.net/2007/01/16/beautify-your-desktop-icons/ Looks interesting.
