Hi all

I'm after some help, I have a shared folder on a Windows 7 machine within a small home network. When connecting to this shared folder from an XP machine and right clicking and taking the customize option there is no option to "Change Icon"
This option is available when trying from the local (W7) machine. Anyone know if there is a way of enabling this ?

see icon.jpg attached for example

Thanks in advance
