I assume that you're a PC User Wink

You can find some great icon sets on 'heavy' portals, as deviantart.com. They have a great icon section.
Or you can go to some independant free sites, as copland (www.graphicsdesign.org/copland/ old, but still great), Mikworks...You can find a great list on VirtualPlastic web :

Why not make your own ...
try ICON EDIT 32 which is a free program that you can get @ pcmag.com
You have to sign up to their website but just this one program is worth it......While youre at it also download CURSOR DANCE which is a program to make mouse pointers......

Meryl contributed this one in the 01.15.2003 Windows Daily:

IconArt v1.1 [318k] Win9x/2k/XP

http://www.conware.org/products/ia/about.php

{Icon editor} Personalize your Desktop shortcut or File Explorer icons with your own. IconArt is a small utility for creating new icons and editing existing icons. The interface includes a color palette and a tools palette, which allows you to spray, fill, select objects, flip the image, change colors, rotate or move the image, and add masks. You know how the icons on the Desktop are larger than those in File Explorer? No worries here about having to create an identical icon from scratch to make it larger: IconArt can scale to various common icon sizes. Other than the ability to import and convert GIF, JPG, and BMP images to ICO, the program can also extract icons from EXE and DLL file types. Though there is no help file, the tools have ToolTips, which means a small box pops up with the name of the tool when you hover your mouse over the tool. I even successfully imported a GIF of Chris's head and turned it into an icon! For more information on scaling icons of different sizes, check the posts on the ConWare message boards. [Meryl]
