Displaying PDF icons in search results

I received some questions today on how to display the pdf icons in search results. After you can index pdf documents  (installing the pdf ifilter, bouncing the search service and all that good stuff), please use the instructions on the blog given below to surface the pdf icons in search results. Note that you need to do this on each WFE.

    The 32bit Office 2010 Filter Packs will not install on Windows 7 x64. This is a problem for 32bit software that needs an IFilter interface to access the plain text for .docx files and others. Since the default Windows 7 x64 supports 32/64 .exe for reading .doc files, why is this a problem now?
