complete control over the icon selected to represent a given file,
folder, or file system object.

Uses first contained icon, if any; otherwise uses default.

..exe, ActiveX .exe, .dll or UserControl, as well as a default icon for
older VB projects. Or uses customized icon.

Frm IconHandler

By Name IconHandler
Display different icons for same file type based on filename fragment.
