I have changed the application Icon in the properties page, tried, then changed my mind, selected another one, rebuild, file shows the latest icon but soon as i create a shortcut shows the older icon i wanted to change!!!

Any ideas?

This may be Windows caching the icons.

From http://www.tweakxp.com/article37003.aspx regarding Windows XP

Just refresh the icon cache by deleting the IconCache.db file from your profile directory (usually /Documents and Settings/Username/Local Settings/Application Data). It will be automatically recreated.

didn't worked for Windows 7 64 Bit
Try search for `windows 7 icon cache`, but I won't guarantee that the solutions works.
