There is a program called NODOS.zip that will do esacly what you want.  You tell it the file to work with, and the icon to display when it is iconized, and it will do it.  It works with normal dos programs, bat files, and even zip files.  I'd try 
	cica.cica.indiana.edu /pub/pc/win3
for it.

Now, to all you techies, *HOW* does it do it?  I'm mistified.
