It should be easy to fix. I am able to fix it from the binaries this way: http://screencast.com/t/YOg0RqLRDBgK first I nop the icon assigment in the MainWindow Class constructor so it looks like this: http://screencast.com/t/krUjx2r4xD

Then I reinyect the file into ReplicatorG.jar and finally I assign the replicator big icon to AWT.dll in java/bin directory of ReplicatorG

And looks very nice (I retouched a bit the icon): http://screencast.com/t/KXqvrXK77Qi

Checked in a somewhat better icon: d1d4ddb0d1dba7c7ed95b263f3de91d6d6b7433c Give that a whirl. If you have a cleaner version please make a pull request or attach the file.

It is the way how java assign the icon in the MainWindow Class constructor, Windows uses that icon for the toolbar.

There is a new small trick you can do http://nakkaya.com/2009/12/06/java-taskbar-icon-on-windows-7/ I can try to do it but it is a lot of work because I don't actually have java, a proper ide, etc and the trick should be like 5 mins.
