Iconpackager and W2k

Is Iconpckager compatible with W2k? I just tried 2.0 and the icons that had transparency came up horribly.

Yes IconPackager is compatible with Windows 2000.
However, you were most likely trying to use Windows XP icons with it; unfortunately these are not compatible with Windows 2000 since W2k does not have the ability to display 32bit icons (with the 8 bit alpha transparency).
Windows XP icons only look like they were intended to, on XP only. On any other Windows OS they will have black 'corruption' around the icon and not display correctly or reliably I'm afraid.
