It's easy to extract an application's own icon in C#:

form.Icon = Icon.ExtractAssociatedIcon( Application.ExecutablePath );



The ExtractAssociatedIcon static method on the Icon class (in System.Drawing) extracts the associated icon from any file.  By supplying the Application.ExecutablePath (in System.Windows.Forms), you extract the application's own icon.
