Ok, then you have to update your files.
I think you have to replace at least pythonCE22.exe,
pcceshell.py, and win32gui.pyd.
Maybe a few other files but I don't remember.

After updating PythonCE22.exe, you will see the icon.
But you may see the quater of big icon, 
instead of whole small icon.
I may fix this sometime lator.

Meanwhile, you may recopy old python.exe
(let's say, from 1.52) and specify to use 
the icon in that one.

If you want to change icon, there is a
great software called resourcehacker.
And this will let you change Icons and 
resources as you wish.
(Try on a copied file to be safe.)

Well, if you are trying something like;
>>> import /program files/youscript
>>> import /program files/youscript.py
>>> import "/program files/youscript.py"
>>> import "/program files/youscript"
It dosn't work.

You may do this;
>>> execfile("/program files/yourscript.py")

or, you can set sys.path to desired directory;
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path.append('/program files')
>>> import yourscript

I checked with my machine, and it worked with
'/program files/'. 

What is your machine by the way?
NEC? Sharp? Intermec?
