I have had pretty good success with the most recent Finder versions if I 
put the application on a scratch floppy, force the Finder to rebuild the 
Desktop file on that floppy (which forces it to use the new icon), and 
copying the file to my hard disk.  The Finder seems to do a better job 
about updating its Desktop information when a new version of a file is 
copied to a disk.
