I have remade the icon using ICOfx and saved it 32x32 32bit color. When I go to replae the file in REexplorer, it gives me an error that the size or color depth is not the same. Any ideas on how to fix this up so I can do the replacement? Thanks in advance.
And I got this response.....

also wanted to say (not directed at the previous poster), that for those people who are having trouble doing this, following the directions on the 1st page, i am now able to change out any of the icons that i want. so the directions really do work!!!!

The problem was not replacing the .dll file its self, it was the .ico graphic within the dll file. I do want to thank Burgside Tiger for your input because pointng me back to the first page let me to find another suggested program, ResHack, which replaced the icon without any problem and was much easier to use than what I was using previously.

Long story short, thanks for the input and I finally have a rA icon that works on my phone. This is the first time I am finally totally happy with a task bar! Thanks to everyone for all your hard work developing these things!
