It's very decent for a freeware. It can create icons from any image. Just 
open the image(bmp, jpg, gif, etc), then use Icon-->Create Windows Icon From 
Image.

If you want free icons, see the end of this page:

http://www.small-icons.com/index.htm

They make them free, so you get used to them, and when you later need more 
icons; because icons that you make in your own don't look as good, you end 
up paying them.
