Windows Vista: How to shrink the icons on the desktop
 

I just accidentally found out that if you hold control (ctrl) and move your mouse's wheel up or down on the desktop that it will shrink your icons smaller than your allowed to in personalize.

If you try to change the properties inside of personalize it will not allow you to shrink it as small as you can get it with this method. I hope this helps someone and/or is found as an interesting topic.

Can someone test it on WinXP and tell me if it's the same.

nop it does not

It works on windows explorer as a means of zooming in or out. Irritated me so much before I had figured out that it is done that way.
