Wesley:
Thanks for your response to More (and NEW) Icons.
I went to "Jeff's Icon's" website > Jeff's Icons (http://www.jeffs-icons.com)
(and downloaded) a bunch but...they're not like the WINDOWS Icons. They're
a bit fuzzy and graphics seem to be somewhat distorted.

Ur I.T. Mate Group Freeware Library Icon Library

*** NOTE *** I've been to IT.Mate.co.uk/Icons and it gives me an error
message:
Due to bandwidth constraints, this resource is no longer available as of
18th June 2006. If you are simply wanting to download the .zip collections,
please see the Ur I.T. Mate Group Archive, available at;

http://archive.mysteryfcm.co.uk/?f=Graphics/Icons/Icon_Library
you go to THIS Website and it's not found.

Any additional information you can provide me would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thanks!
Bill H.
