    Well is it needed to put the credit of a site if you have copied some icons from their site, WHICH were for free to take and use..

    Why not ask the owners of the site you took them from?

    Sorry, well it is one of those free icons directories, stupid question really, if they are for free why need a copyright?

    If it's public domain then you don't need to cite a source. Still, it's good form to give credit where credit is due and I'm sure the owner of the directory would appreciate a little backlink love.
