I was using candybar to alter my icons. I did quite a lot of editing and then it expired. Then, i couldn't change my icons, so i decided to trash everything, including all that i can find under spotlight for "candybar". Not knowing that i trashed the default icons that act as a backup settings for the application so.. basically, i removed the backup for the default icons.

PS. I empty trash everytime i see things in the trash

After reinstalling i was back on icon changing again. Then found out that all the default icons were missing.

How do i repair this prob? Like using original OS disc or something?

I know this is really basic - but have you opened the info panel for an app and deleted whatever icon was there?
