Hello FMCP,
h?hl=ru&q= free+icon+ editor& btn G=%D0%9F%D 0%BE%D0%B8 %D1%81%D0% BA&lr=
I had same problem one day. Incomatible size and color depth of icon was reasons of that problem. Try to restrict color depth and size of icon.
You can restrict size and depth to 32x32px @ 16 colors for example, rebuild project and test it. If passed you can enlarge icon, for example, to 48x48@32. By this way you can find optimal size and depth.
Probably you need to find good icon editors, if you don't have already...
Just look google to find them:
