ExtractIcon() takes long time for some files

[s_k]

Hi all, I've simple file manager, in which I display icons for EXE files using ExtractIconEx() this way: ExtractIconEx (pathToEXEFile, 0, &bigIcon, &smallIcon, 1); It works fine. But I also found EXE files, for which this function takes much more time than normally. One example of such file is RLUninstall.exe, located in WINNT directory. Doesn't some know how is this possible or how to bypass it? Thank you for any suggestion.
