Find the programs .ICO file and replace it.
Or, right click the program, click the General tab and click the Change Icon button

You wrote this program with what tool set (GNU C/Visual C++/Borland C++/Visual Basic)?

And this belongs in Programming

All you do is get an ico folder or covert a different image to ico and then do what p1ng said. If you can't find an icon and just want some weird one, open explorer.exe or some random .dll files in the system folder... those contain icons if you browse to them in the Change Icon menu.

I made this program in batch. THen i binded it with a file binder, but i didnt bind it with anything. SO now, its an exe and it works, BUT this stupid binder has a setting so that it automattically changes the icon to sumthin really stupid (a smiley face) and it gives you the option to change the icon, but the icon MUST be 766 bytes..wich is really gay

If its already compiled, you can use a program called "Resource Hacker", and change it that way.

Just open it up in Visual Studio if you have access to it and edit the resource file.
