Yeppers (y). My freinds dont know there are other browsers. They dont know there are browsers. They just think IE is the internet :tongue:

This is a bug in MSIE...

Does it happen if you clear the icon cache?

Well i'm running Opera version 7.23 and i don't get a favicon showing up... is that because the link rel code isn't in the page...
also i thought that it could be put in as a meta tag?? can someone confirm or refute this

Another way to get the icon to work in IE is to go to:

File -> Send -> Shortcut to Desktop

A shortcut is made then the icon is downloaded and is used as the icon for the shortcut you made and when you double click it, the icon of that shortcut is shown in the title bar ;)
