The eclipse.exe shows the icon as well as the shortcut. If I try to edit the shortcut (change icon) I can see the eclipse icon. When eclipse is starting, I get the splashscreen and the icon in the taskbar. But when eclipse comes up and the splash goes away, the icon in the taskbar goes to a generic white box w/blue upper border. As far as installing the fix, I unzipped it to the MyEclipse install dir (C:\program files\myeclipse)
