set icon for website_deploy DLL file

Hi;

How can I set the icon for the DLL file a portla deploy project creates?

As for the setting Icon for the project dll file, do you mean you want your
project's assembly dll has a own Icon as an exe application? If so, I'm
afraid this setting can not be configured individually. It is the windows
shell that controls the icon of each file extension(stored in registry).
And the "exe" is a particular case that the Icon of each exe program can be
defined in the exe itself(as an embeded resource). For other extension
such as "dll", you can only specify a fixed icon for all the files (of that
extension) globally. To do this, you use the "tools-->folder
options-->file types" and use the "advance" setting to change the icon for
all files of a given extension.
