Okay,
If you have the free version, it does not support changing the toolbar icons in IE and Explorer windows.
If you have the full version, you should be able to open "WindowBlinds Configuration panel" and select "My Toolbars" on the left side.
In the "My Toolbars" section, you should see a number of check boxes. The default settings = "Use the WindowBlinds colouring settings on these icons" and "Always use the toolbar icons defined in the current skin" are selected. These settings should change the toolbar icons if the skin includes them.
You should also be able to select: "Use the WindowBlinds colouring settings on these icons" and "Always use the toolbar icon set selected below" > select a set of toolbar icons (which should display in the upper section of the config. panel) > click "Apply changes" on the left side. This would probably be the best method to test the functionality of this feature.
There is the option to use a selected icon set if the current skin does not include one.
Note - you will have to close IE or some Explorer windows (i.e., Control Panel) > then re-open to complete the apply command. In some cases a reboot of the computer may be necessary.
If you do not see any icons displayed after selecting a set, there may be missing files.
Note #2 - if you are using a skin that was made with a newer version of WindowBlinds, you may be experiencing an incompatibility between versions and may want to consider updating to the current released version 4.51.
I have included this link to the official list of current features for both the free and full version 4.51 Link
I hope this helps.

kisseta,
Can you update to the version 4.51?
If I am not mistaken, your full version configuration panel should look like this Link, and include the displayed "Toolbar icons" category.
I do not know what your elegibility is for updating, but if you are eligible for updates, you would go here Link, then fill in your e-mail address and they should send an e-mail with a link to whatever you have paid for and are entitled to.
I hope this helps.
