I've just moved some folders around my computer, and I want to change the icon of the folder to reflect the data within. How do I accomplish this? WinXPPro SP2.

...right click the folder you want to change, click properties/customize/change icon, and choose your new icon...

If the folder you want to change contains other folders within it, can you not change the icon? I made a new My Documents folder in my F: drive, and moved My Documents from the C: drive. I can edit every folder BUT the folder containing My Documents on F:. The Customize tab simply isn't there.

I think how it works is it'll change the all of the subfolders? Test that out with a less 'critical' folder like My Documents.
Stuff like that makes me want to kill Windows.
