My start menu icons; mainly search and run icons are totally messed up. This also applys for the Internet Explorer and Outlook Express, when I ask for the Start Menu to display my Internet/Mail icons. I think this started when I uninstalled StyleXP (i had the i-candy icon set). I also removed the folder from Program Files and some stuff from Windows/Resources/Icons. Now my icons look like this; problem1.JPG Any help would be great.

Do the icons still lead you to their respective places? Or do they not work anymore?
