The icon you see is built into Netscape.
Half the background is blue, the other half is transparent.

My copy of Netscape has a Netscape.ad file where it assigns
names to its icons, but I don't see the actual icons anywhere,
I think they are actually built in.

Note that xv shows the transparency as gray, this can be
misleading.

The latest betas will allow you to override the Netscape icon,
do:

Style Netscape* icon myicon.xpm, IconOverride

if your version doesn't support that, try 2.3.28.
