I tried with Rosasm, same result?

Betov I just tried with Rosasm and I got the same result, so this is really
starting to puzzle me now ...

All I did was this ... Rosasm > New > Exe with Start-up
Then, Resources > Icon > Load Icon, and selected a valid .ICO file
I then compiled the EXE and was able to confirm that the first 0x16 bytes
from the ICO file are missing!

Here's what I mean ...
Here's the first 0x20 bytes from original .ico:
00000100010010100000010008006805
00001600000028000000100000002000

Then when I use any resource editor program and dump the resource as binary
data I get this:
28000000100000002000000001000800
00000000000000000000000023CC0000
which as you can see is missing the first 0x16 bytes.

It's not just a matter of the offset being 0x16 out though, because if you
go back 0x16 bytes in the EXE you can see that those bytes are different
anyway

So ... VERY WEIRD!!!
Does anybody have any ideas as to what might be going on?
