I just unpinned IE and added it back (by dragging the shortcut from the start menu) and the jump list repopulated to what was there before. I also tried to recreate what you did and the jump list came back for that as well. I may have missed something in the second try, however, b/c I didn't see the generic icon. When I unpin IE the icon just goes away.
