Missing icon - minor problem

I noticed last night that the icon was missing from the start menu for Spywareblaster. I'm not sure if it has been missing since I installed it, but I tried deleting the icon cache and uninstalling/reinstalling Spywareblaster, but the icon remains missing.
If I right click on the shortcut within the menu and select properties-change icon, the correct icon is shown there.
Not a major problem, just a bit annoying that the usual fixes don't seem to correct it.

Any other suggestions?

Hi Charlie,

I get this on some shortcuts as well sometimes. Go ahead and change the icon by selecting it and clicking OK to see if the correct icon will display afterwards. You may have to do this a couple of times for it to work.

Hope this helps,
Shawn
