It's obviously something I'm just not getting right, but when I use IconDesk all my .zip's and folders show up with the default folder icon (I use IconPackager so even my folders shouldn't be using the default folder icon)...when I use older versions (.66) the .zip's have the correct icon but my folder's have the deafault system icon.

The only thing I can see that may be causing an issue is that I don't use Winzip (I use WinRAR) but I installed Winzip, rebooted and it has no effect.

Thanks,

Don't forget to email the module writer if no one here knows a workaround, else he might never get aware of this problem.

Planning to, just wanted to give a day or so to see if it's something I am doing wrong or not.

Well I dont know about the zips but icon packager can't change folder icons in litestep can it

are you running xp? because it might be something to do with xp's zip file shell integration... i have noticed this problem though

Hmm, the XP zip integration could be the issue. I just checked a Win2k box and noticed that on it .zip's have a file type description of WinRar Archive while in XP it's WinRar Zip Archive. I'm guessing that XP handles zip's differently. Going to install litestep with the same theme on a Win2k machine at work today and see what happens with the zips.

does icondesk even work on win98? because i can't get any version of it to run for more than a few seconds before LS crashes.

Crashes for me as well. Try emailing Sci; I think it's the icon extraction code.
