This is what is installed on a clean FC4 machine:

epiphany-1.6.1-3 RPM contains the
file /usr/share/applications/epiphany.desktop, which references the
(themeable) icon web-browser.png. This icon file exists in a number of
variations, at least these:

/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/web-browser.png
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/32x32/apps/web-browser.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrastLargePrint/48x48/apps/web-browser.png
/usr/share/icons/HighContrastLargePrintInverse/48x48/apps/web-browser.png

which are put there by the RPMs gnome-icon-theme-2.10.1-4 and
gnome-themes-2.10.1-2. In the hicolor icon in question is a stylized
blue planet with a mouse pointer on top of it; in other themes, it might
be something else.

This is unlike the firefox-1.0.4-4 RPM, which is self-contained, in that
its .desktop file refers to a firefox.png, which it installs
in /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox.png (again themeable, but with the only
by-default installed version provided by the program RPM itself).

Your theme selection is broken. I suggest you reset to default theme and
try again.
