Ok thanks. New can of worms. ;)

It seems to be working (on a different computer atm) but when I dragged it
to the taskbar (how you can pin a website) it shows a large version of the
default one. I think I need to add those multiple sizes to the ico. If I
edit my current one in VS it shows the small one but not alternate sizes
(like how the default one does...)

Which leads me to a new question, what's the best (easiest/cheapest) way to
import images into an ico file. Any freebie ICO editors about? I don't
fancy doing it by hand in Visual Studio. Hmm I wonder if VS has an import
image in its editor? Not looked before...
