Changing Icons on desktop

I am running kde.

 

I have installed firefox from the a tgz file. I added a link on the desktop. The link uses the default icon.

 

When I right clicked on the icon and Properties I could not find a way of changing the icon. I then clicked on Edit File Type and found that by clicking on the icon I I could change it.

 

When I clicked on Apply or OK the icon on the desktop did not change.

 

Any help on how to change desktop icons would be appreciated.

I discovered that the icons change after I re-boot so I assume that closing the GUI and restarting would have the save result.

yes, it would. (just to confirm your suspicions ;) )
