Icons in Vista RC1 'messed up'

Hi,

I have noticed on two installs on RC1 32bit that when changing the icon of
folders, some of the icons arent what they seem to be.
For example here is a link to a screen dump I did when chaging the icon of a
folder.

You are not alone....

I choose an icon for my emule incoming folder desktop shortcut. Itīs a
yellow folder with a small green arrow but in the desktop it shows just a
differente kind of yellow folder.

This is the location I use to get most icons.

C:\Windows\system32\imageres.dll
