App with a borderless form fails to display icon on taskbar (NT)

I'm looking for a workaround for this .NET bug (if one exists) that
occurs on NT (and maybe other 9x). The bug doesn't appear on XP.
1) Create a simple app (In C# or VB).
2) Set the forms formBorderStyle=None.
3) Run the app.

Notice that the taskbar only shows the app name, with no icon.

Is this a known bug? Anyone have an explanation as to why the icon
doesn't show? Or at least a workaround with the understanding that we
need to keep formBordersStyle=None.

Thanks,
Ed
 
I just want to clarify - I wrote that it occurs on NT, I meant win2k.
Apparently the bug appears on all Win OS's except XP.
