Yes, for example. I d'loaded a new Google Chrome Icon. And just used the image as the icon. I want to know where the computer stores its icons.

It depends on the operating system that you're using.

Oh I think they are stored in the exe file or a dll. Right click > properties > Shortcut > Change Icon.

Im sure that the icon is stored inside the exe itself. However you can always change it with the change icon thingy above. You just need to make a ico file, then use replace icon. Usually ico files need a special editor and cant be made in your normal paint program.
