Does anyone have any hi-res icons to adequately replace the icons in the Windows 2000 Admin Pack? All the icons are simply ugly, but I can't find icons that convey the same meaning as the ones from Microsoft. Any help, here?
See the screenshot for examples of what the icons look like now:
Don't you mean Windows XP? That screenshot is from XP. 2000 doesn't support Visual Styles nor Tiles.
Sure, whatever you want to call it. I'm taking about the tools for managing a Windows 2000 Active Directory domain, thus "Windows 2000 Admin Pack". Actually, that screenshot is of the Windows 2003 Server Admin Pack, but that doesn't change anything. I still need hi-res icons to replace the ugly ones that show up on my dock. 
Yeah you have to be more specific i can't understand wat your talking bout take a screenshot annd ill try and find wat ur looking for
I need replacements for these icons:
Ignore the fact the screenshot is from XP, focus on the icons...
He wants icons to replace those in Control Panel -> Administrative Tools.
......... and this, maybe for (Microsoft.NET Framework?)

Ah, this one is very nice! Is this based on something in OSX or is it all original?
I think a lot of these are based on OS X icons, but I'm not sure about some of them.
I suggest downloading Flyakite's SP v5.1 Pack (http://flyakite.msfnhosting.com/osx/) .
Install what you want (possibly just the .cpl's), and that's a pretty easy way to replace many of the icons in the control panel. I think it also replaces the icons in the Administrative Tools.

It doesn't. That's the reason for this thread. 
Oh, sorry. Would you hack the cpl's to change the icons? Just out of curiosity, what do you use to hack a cpl? Does ResHacker work?

Yes. Although I think the applets that link the Admin Tools shortcuts are .msc files. Example: services.msc, gpedit.msc
ResHacker will work for msc files too. 
Other icons (found in my png archive!)
-Macintosh Manager (maybe for Computer Management icon)
-Network Utility (for network load balancing manager)
-For Connection Manager Administration i've made this one:
-DHCP (also made by me, inspired on this image)
