It is very simple. Icon's size depends on your screen's resolution.

Just Right click on your open desktop

The display properties box will open

Now click on settings Tab

Select the screen resolution that suites your desktop

Click apply and Ok.

Thats all...

You can reduce your icons size easily..

If you are using Windows XP,

than Right click on your desktop at empty space,the display properties box will open, click on settings and select the screen resolution click apply and than Ok.

And if You have upgraded to Windows Vista or are more familiar with earlier versions of Microsoft Windows will immediately notice when getting onto Windows Vista that the icons and icon text is much larger than previous versions of Windows. If you wish to have the icons appear as they did in previous versions of Windows follow the below steps.

1. Right-click on the Desktop.
2. Click View.
3. Select Classic Icons

Now you see your icon's size is normal.
