Hi Sheri,

More than one icon creating program had problems with Vista - the one
I use (ArtIcons Pro), couldn't view .icl files under Vista either
until I filed a bug report with the programmers :)

I've now gone back to XP - I dual boot with Vista, but since I
installed XP the other day, I've spent far more time in XP than in
Vista. A big middle finger from me to Bill Gates and Microsoft for the
abomination that is Vista...
