Form http://windowsxp.mvps.org/htmicon.htm

This article assumes that the DefaultIcon for htm / html files are set correctly, but the problem still persists. To verify the Default icon for this filetype, you can check in Control Panel - Folder Options - File types dialog. To quickly set the DefaultIcon string for html files, type this command in Start, Run dialog:
regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll

If that does not help, you may need to remove the IconHandler set for htmlfiles by a third-party application. Follow the steps below:

a.. Start Regedit.exe and navigate to the following key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ htmlfile \ ShellEx \ IconHandler

a.. Backup the key. See Method 2 here
b.. Delete the IconHandler key from the registry.
c.. Close Regedit
d.. Open Internet Explorer
e.. From Tools menu, choose Internet Options
f.. Select the Programs tab.
g.. Click Reset Web Settings button and complete the process.
If the problem is seen for .mht (MHTML Document) files, backup and delete this key:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ mhtmlfile \ ShellEx \ IconHandler

The Command line regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll worked for a lot of sites. Not all of them. Now, I wish there is a way to keep the sites' icon if I want to. Thanks for your help.
