ok ur problem has been solved, when (change icon) is not activated this is mean the icon that u have on desktop is the icon of the general application, so u cant change its icon
all u have to do is going to (C:program filesMSN messenger)
and click right click on it and then (send to) then (Desktop)
so like this u will have the shortcut on teh desktop
in this time u click on it right click then properities then change icon and enjoy ur pink kit
Best wishes and good luck , if u have any conflict or any questions u can E-mail me or even IM me , and it would be my pleasure to help

Right click on the icon and create a shortcut. then go to the properties of the MSN icon and set it to hidden. Rename the shortcut to whatever name you want and then do the “Change Icon” thingy!

If i am right you are referring to windows live messenger icon on desktop. Right? If yes then if you cant change the main icon try doing this way. Put the pink icon or whatever you want on desktop, the right mouse click, then properties and in target field type the location of msn exe file. I think it should be like this:
“C:Program FilesMSN Messengermsnmsgr.exe”
Don’t forget the quotation marks (“).
Hope this helps
