    Anyone know how to change the orb icon? I already have different color orb.ico's that I downloaded but for the life of me can't figure out how to change the orb.

    As far as i remember, the orb for vista isn't like the start button in XP. In XP you could customize the text and stuff but in vista i think it's a .dll loaded into the explorer shell or something.
