As far as I know, you need an animation program to make a moving icon 'cause WMM can't do GIFs. I use Animation Shop, which is part of Paintshop Pro. I know that Photoshop has some sort of animation counterpart as well.
However, I've seen those "vid-like" icons where they're moving very smoothly, not all herky-jerky (uh, that's a good technical term there... ) and I have no idea how they're made because they're waaaaay beyond my poor skills. But I DO know WMM pretty well and all it can do is save project files as MSWMM or render vids as WMV or AVI.
Sorry to not be more helpful...
