I think it's actually shell32.dll. I think they're under the bitmaps section of the file. Don't quote me on this, but I remember reading that somewhere.

Those are for explorer, might as well get all of them.

IE bar is shell32.dll 204-207

Some dialog boxes have the arrows in them too, look in

comctl32.dll, 124-125, 130-131

I've been having issues with this one. Some times they new ones show, and sometimes the old. Only had this when I switched to SP2. This would be on a fresh install so I don't have multiple versions of the file.

Interesting. Have you perhaps installed any updates since you installed XP? An update may have overwritten the file with a newer one with the old bitmaps.

if anyone has problems with this old/new bitmaps in comctl32.dll, here is the solution.

there is one version of comctl32.dll in the windows/system32 folder. and there is another version in C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\ (in my case: C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\x86_Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.2600.1643_x-ww_7c3a9bc6).. it depends the UPDATES what you have. so just replace the bitmaps in all comctl32.dll files and no more old bitmaps.

the C:\WINDOWS\WinSxS\ version has the new bitmaps and the system32 version has the old ones...
