[release] win2003 & mac icons built-in

modified shell32.dll, explorer.exe, url.dll, mydocs.dll with Mac OS X icons. Unlike IconPackager's registry hack, the dll approach works for *ALL* applications.

It's for Windows Server 2003 SP1 english version only. And you must use 24/32bit screen colors and set HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktopWindowMetricsShell Icon BPP to 32

Notes:

1.The size of new shell32.dll is 18MB+, the original one is only 8MB+.

2.In shell32.dll I changed the "Customize This Folder" menu item to "Customize".

Example for replacing in-use system .dll or .exe:

  1. eject any windows CDs
  2. run cmd
  3. cd c:windowssystem32
  4. del dllcacheshell32.dll
  5. move shell32.dll shell32.old
  6. copy d:newshell32.dll .shell32.dll

PS: you will also need to rebuild icon cache after reboot.
