Hi,

I've got a problem that I'm trying to fix for some time now. With the 
installion i am creating a shortcut to open an webpage and one to 
uninstall the software. The shortcuts themselfs are working fine, but i 
have a little problem with the icons. My .ico files contain the 
following formats:
RGBA 256x256, 48x48, 32x32, 16x16
8bit 48x48, 32x32, 16x16

For WinXP and Vista the icons set for the shortcuts are working fine 
too, but windows 2000 refuses to show the correct icon. If i'm trying to 
change the icon of the shortcut via the properties it shows the correct 
icon. However if I select it again and apply the change, the properties 
dialog shows the correct icon too. But the the icon does show up if i 
apply/ok the properties dialog.

My shortcuts look like that:

<Shortcut Id = "HomepageUser"
    Advertise   = "no"
    Target      = "[HomepageURL]"
    Directory   = "startmenu_subfolder"
    Name        = "!(loc.HomepageName)"
    Description = "!(loc.HomepageDescription)"
    Icon        = "Homepage.ico"
    IconIndex   = "0" />


Does anyone have an idea how to get it working for all 3 operating 
systems (win2k, winXP, vista)?

TIA
Andreas Hellwig
