If you have "Iconpackager" ...I think you should be able to open them with that, and resize them ...however, it's been a while and my memory ain't what it used to be ...so I could be wrong.

Someone ought to be along soon ~who knows more on the matter than me...

Hope you get it sorted.

if you not have iconpackager and that the icons is on the desktop it is really very strange which to have only the small sizes because normally Windows manages the sizes all alone !
in each icon which you downloads , in fact all the sizes are included and Windows chooses the size which corresponds has that which is already on the desktop.
or you use a sofware for manage your icon ?
the other icon in your desktop is also in 16,16?
-if you want to be on whom all the sizes are in the icons which you downloads !!!
try iconshop120 alpha (free)

What is it you want to do with them, if you drag them to desktop all you have is the icon, it will not link to what the icon is for. If you want to change icons on desktop to ones downloaded, right click on icon select properties then change icon.
