"When the last Info Item referencing an Icon is either Deleted or assigned a different Icon, that unreferenced Icon will be removed from the Info Database."
So if you delete the Item with the undesirable icon you imported (and empty the recycle bin), it will be gone.

You could do it like this....create a new folder in UR for the new icons called NiceIcons....unzip the famfamfam icons....then from windows explorer drag and drop the ones you like onto the NiceIcons folder in UR (creating new Items with links). For each of these new items, UR has captured the icon of the *.ico file it is linked to and the icon will be available to other items via the icon attribute. Now for the untidy part--you can delete the *.ico files from your hard drive and thus break the link. However the captured icon lives on in UR until you delete the last item using it. You can also copy an item with a desirable icon to another UR database, and the icon will become available in that database as well.

Once I get the icons I want, I delete the .ico files and just keep a copy of the famfamfam.zip for possible future use.
