you can get a portable version of this application from portableapps.com
Drag and drop an icon to IcoFX, export 32x32 icon to png, upload :)
IcoFx is commercial software now. I think IcoFx version 1.6.4 was the last free version. You can download it here. http://goo.gl/gpo74
Best icon creating software. It's like Photoshop for icons, while at the same time, it puts IconDeveloper to shame.
A godsend when it comes to working with icons, extracting icons, etc.
IcoFX belongs to the most high-value graphics preparation programs, that I know. It is just a pity, that this outstanding program can only edit Icons (pictures) until max. 256X256 pixel and no ScreenShots with larger dimensions.
