228415 - Thunderbird desktop icon does not include 48×48 version

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[Minh Nguyễn]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.5) Gecko/20031007 Firebird/0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla Thunderbird 0.4 (20031205)

(This doesn't fit into any of the components provided, so I "just guess"ed.
There probably should be a General component, like in other products, but that's
the scope of another bug, probably.)

The desktop icon for Thunderbird is 32×32 even if Windows is set to "use large
icons." Most programs display 48×48 icons when this option is enabled.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place a shortcut to Thunderbird on the Desktop. Make sure that it uses the
default icon.
2. Go to the Control Panel, and open the Display Control Panel.
3. Go to the Effects tab in Windows 98, or to the Appearance tab (?) in Windows XP.
4. In Windows XP, click on the Advanced button.
5. Make sure that the option "Use large icons" is checked.
6. Click OK (twice if on Windows XP).
Actual Results:  
The shortcut on the Desktop for Thunderbird uses a 32×32 icon, whereas any
system icons and most (if not all) of the other icons use 48×48 icons.

Expected Results:  
The shortcut should have displayed a 48×48 icon.

Using Microsoft Windows 98SE, version 4.10.2222A.

If you're viewing the bug in Mozilla and the page looks funny, make sure its
character encoding is set to Unicode (UTF-8).
