If you want to search for services of type http (web), https (secure web),

Results list Icons:
NSLStandardGetURL provides icons in its listings for the following types:

any other types will get a generic icon. However, you can provide icons
if you wish by including an '#ics8' resource id at the end of your comma
delimited list. The dialog will then use that icon if found in its results
list. This icon will be used for all types in a tuple.
For example:
The param "Web Servers,http,https;Telnet Servers,telnet;NFS Servers,nfs,129"
would result in lists of http and https services to be shown with their default
icons, telnet servers would be shown with the default misc. icon and nfs
servers would be shown with your icon at resource id 129.
