ICO question

Greetings all,

I'm working on some visual tweaks to my system and I've run into a stumbling block. How do I go about changing the icon for the recycle bin?? This is the only one that's avoiding me so far. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Win XP Pro.

If you are concerned about editing it yourself, then you might want to look up some "Tweak" tools.

Thanks for the info Stryder.

I've got no problems messing with my registry.

Always backup your registry kids!

Interesting link. What I cannot understand however is that last bit: "You can also change the icons using the Plus tab of Display properties."
???
Uh, no you can't.

It was probably written with one version of the OS which hasn't been continued in future version. I think originally there was a way to change it through "Themes".
