Hi Nigel, yeah the current icon does look pretty gross under Vista, I am going to try and make it nicer.

In the meantime, you can grab one of these higher-res icons that Grendel made from here: http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=519.1 - copy one of those .ico files into MoI's program files directory, and then you can right-click on the shortcut and choose "Properties", and change the icon to use that .ico file there.
