The windows packages don't come with an icon theme by
default. You can extract the gnome-icon-theme package
from [1] over your gtk+ installation. Once you've done
that you need to add the following to your
<gtk+ installation>/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:
gtk-icon-theme-name = "gnome"

If you'd prefer the Tango icon theme, I've built 0.8.90
and it's available from [2]. You extract its contents over
your gtk+ installation as described above and change your
gtkrc: gtk-icon-theme-name = "Tango"

hth,
Dieter
