Unhappy Icons?

I'm looking for icons to spruce up Web Hosting Resources - Grow your webhosting business , as I find the default "folder" icon to be terribly boring. It also seems to make the page look very flat, whereas more custom ones might give the entire site a "lift"

I came across one set that I really like:
Bundles of our Icon Colletions

but I'm not sure I want to take the plunge

Has anyone come across "suitable" icon sets that I could use?

Had a look at them. They're nice, but they don't suit the site's theme as well as I'd like

With the networking ones I could probably find a use for them at work as well, so I'd "kill two birds with one stone"

They have some nice icons over there.

i have lots of icons that i collected over the years. Some of them I don't even remember where i got them from. If you want a copy of the giant folder, you are more then welcome to have them.

Thanks

My main concern with icons is ensuring that they are correctly licensed - the last thing I want is someone coming after me for misuse ....

some of them was bought over the years and some of them were free (don't ask which is which), but they are indeed licence to me, so it might not be good to you. sorry.
