The only other thing I can think of to try, is to change the 201 in line 3 of my script to 101 instead. Both of those icons look the same in the original file. Changing only 201 works on my system, but maybe your machine's configuration uses 101 for some reason.

Also, I'm pretty sure the icon resources in the executable are only used for U.S. English. If your OS language is set to something else, it looks like it may be getting the resources from a separate QuickTime resource file. I didn't find a good tool for editing that on Windows.
