ImageMagick can convert practically any widely used image format to another.
see http://www.imagemagick.org/script/convert.php in particular
There are ImageMagick bindigs for most popular languages.

Note: This was free when this question was asked but apparently it's a paid app now. @Sean Kearon should change the 'correct answer' now.
You can use IcoFX ($59)
It is an all-in-one solution for icon creation, extraction and editing. It is designed to work with Windows XP, Windows Vista and Macintosh icons supporting transparency.

I don't know where I would be without IrFanView. Fantastic for batch converting images, including ico to png.

In case anyone want to convert with Python Imaging Library (PIL) in memory from a file or url

One quick option is to download Paint.net and install the Icon/Cursor plugin. You can then open .ico files with Paint.net, edit them, and save them to .png or another format.
For batch processing, I second the suggestions of ImageMagick or IrFanView.

XnView is a great graphics utility for Windows/Mac/Linux (free) (download page) that will let you browse images, batch convert, transform, resize, rotate, take screenshots etc.
It can do your
XYZ to ICO conversion where XYZ is almost any format under the sun.

free and powerful way to make large resolution .ico files 1024x1024 or greater work with win7 at least, I've tested that :)
just save and type .ico
:)
transparency is easy, load a new image and select advanced options, background color->transparency

The version of Paint that ships with Windows 7 will convert Icons to PNG, JPEG, ect... now.

I just ran into this issue. FYI open the .ico in paint and save as .png. Worked for me!

http://convertico.org/ allows users to convert multiple ico files to PNG, GIF or JPG files in one step.

This is probably a rather silly answer, but if you only need one icon, you could just take a screenshot of the icon in the folder and chop out the part you want. Make sure the icon is showing the size you want and has a white background, of course.
If you are using a decent screenshot application like SnagIt or WinSnap, a region snap should take care of it within a few seconds.
Note that this won't give you transparency.

If you'r not looking for something programmatic then just 'Print Screen' and crop.

There is an online conversion tool available at http://www.html-kit.com/favicon/. In addition to generating the
.ico it will also give you an animated .gif version.
