You dont say what version of windows you are running. But the most likely place to find them is in your windows\system folder. What do you mean by moderate them. Do You mean alter thier appearance? If your going to mess with them, better make back up copies first. or you can screw things up.

Windows icons are not just .ico files. They are contained in various executable ie: Explorer.exe and also in various .dll's to name them all is not possible most programs exe contain the icon you see. Its so much easier to use a proggy to change them for you.
