Windows NT 4.0 will let you use .BMP files as icons. To check this out, right-click on a shortcut's icon, then choose Properties from the menu. When the dialog box opens, click the Shortcut tab. Next, click Change Icon. When the next dialog box opens, click Browse. When the Change Icon dialog box opens, click on the Files of Type list box to expand it and choose All Files. Now locate a .BMP file that you'd like to try. There are several files in the \Winnt folder that you can use. Select the file and click Open. When the next dialog box appears, click OK. This takes you back to the Properties dialog box. Click OK to close this dialog box and to record your change.
