ie6 toolbar icons

[Hans Mugge]

Hi friends,

I am looking for a way to modify the IE6 toolbar icons. Does anyone know
where the original IE6 toolbar icons is stored?
It probably is a 32-bit Bitmap file...

Thanks in advance.

It is extremely unlikely to be a 32-bit Bitmap file or you would have
found it.
If nobody gives you a definitive answer, then try one of the programs
that will do this and see how it is done.
I tried Themebar 4 years ago and it would change the toolbars by
replacing the default generated images with bitmaps.

Hi Alan,

Thanks,

But after a friend of mine told me how to do it, I found the file. With a
resource editor I was able to find the bitmap file inside the file:

c:/windows/system32/shell32.dll

Actually I found out later that someone else already did it and put it on
the web:
