Since you have to start your application from some kind
of command-line tool (i.e., Windows "shortcut" or "bat" file), 
you change the icon of that tool.  For a shortcut, you open
the "Properties dialog", go to the "Shortcut" tab, press
the "Change icon..." button and select a new icon.

For a "bat" file, you go to the "Program" tab of the Properties
dialog, and do the same, press the "Change icon" button, etc.

If you decide to use a professional installation program such
as InstallAnywhere (I highly recommend IA), it will assist
you in setting the icon, and in many of the other important 
properties, not only for Windows, but for many other platforms.
