You might try rebuilding the icon cache on the XP machine. Sometimes the wrong icon gets used if the cache gets weird.

So it seems to be something about this icon file. But it works fine on the other machine. I've copied the one from the Vista machine over to the XP machine to make sure there wasn't damage or something.
