Well, this is funny. I downloaded the profile for my Minolta Dimage, and it showed exactly like you described, with the weird "PC" icon (it's called Prodimage.icm). Even so, I simply put it onto the Colorsync folder, and it appears in Photoshop, where I can use it just like any other profile. Try with the original file, before the conversion.
