This thread went off-topic, so maybe I skimmed too quickly to see if someone else had already suggested this, but:

Changing the icons in emplode [is/should-be] quite easy.

Microangelo Librarian (part of the sharware Microangelo icon-editing suite [sic]) allows you to extract as well as REPLACE icons embedded in .DLL, .EXE, etc. files without corrupting the rest of the file.

I successfully changed the Windows flag on the Start button to a classic yellow smiley and put it up as shareware about four years ago (and am still getting e-mail to this day, asking how I did it) doing this. It seems you can steal as well as replace any icon in any filetype.

Enjoy.
