take look at this:

Although it has one of the most embarrassing icons i have ever seen,
this icon-editor works fine ;-)

And it is totally free !!!

You just have to fill a form to get an acvtivation code.
I did and had NO spam-mails after that...

The most important facts for creating a RR compatible icon:

32*32 pixel
16 colors (4 bit)
(Unfortunataly the most ugly 16 colors from the windows 
system-color-palette...
I hope that will be changed in one of the future versions !)

That will result in the necessary 744 byte filesize !

Hope that helps...
