Does Fav.icon default to IE icon after reboot? 1

[danielh68]

Hi,

I notice that my fav.icons default to the IE icon after rebooting my machine. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks,
dan

[tt]I haven't noticed. Just in case, you're not naming your fav.ico are you? it should be favicon.ico [sup]

A favicon can be named whatever you like, as long as you provide a link to the appropriate icon from your head section.

Thanks everyone for your input.

As Wullie recommended, I went to favicon.com and discovered what's going wrong. I wasn't aware if the user clears their cache it will turn the fav icons to the default IE icons. How depressing.

Thanks again.
