It's better to use Axialis IconWorkshop instead (www.axialis.com). Unfortunately it's not a freeware but it's the only one I found so far that can create icons that can be displayed at 256x256 in win vista explorer. I hugely recommend this one, especially when all you have to do is create the 256x256 model. IconWorkshop creates the other sizes automatically without quality loss, unlike in "Prepare your icon[...] step 5" of this tutorial. Inkscape's pretty good though. A few minor bugs in vista home premium 32bit though, but nothing that will prevent you reaching your goals. Inkscape + Axialis IconWorkshop = Great duo!
