Later it dawned on me that this would be a better search string:
program.exe,
including the comma at the end.
Use the exename of the program whose icon is being displayed in
Explorer for all your .ico files.

That's because there is probably, somewhere in your registry,
a string with the value: c:\path\program.exe,0
though it might end with a different number instead of 0.
By including the comma, you will skip all the keys which
quote that exename as a command and only catch those which
are pointing to an icon inside that exe.

That is not 100% certain because some programs set the registry
to point to one of their dlls as the source of the icon.
c:\path\OurOwnDll.dll,0


Another alternative is to write to the makers of the program which
has set its own icon for all your .ico files, asking them what
change their program has made to your registry.
IMHO that was not a good thing for them to do, especially if they
did not give you an option and they just do it automatically to
everybody who installs their program.
