A:
The icon is the standard icon for .msi files. You can´t modify it from within the Setup Project in Visual Studio 2008. The screens used in the Setup Project can´t be modified either from within Visual Studio 2008. The best bet would probably be to look at other 3rd part providers. One example is the Skin Crafter Installer. You can also use Wix and create your customized dialogs yourself.

You can use Visual Studio to change the setup.exe icon. Take the following steps.
Build your setup project
Open the setup.exe file use just build, File -> Open -> File
Right click the Icon node in the file explorer window and you can change and save.
