It shows properly in Firefox here. I don't think Internet Explorer shows favicons in the address bar. It showed up when I added the page to my Favorites though.

Seems like nothing's wrong here, just Internet Explorer being dodgy correct :)

As much as it sends shudders down my spine to say this, but IE is handling it the correct way :P
Favicons are intend to be used as the icon for the site in your favorites (hence favicon), however most browsers display them all the time, which while not adhearing to the standards, is better IMO :P

Well it used to appear in IE and without even adding it to the favorites list
