Favicons 2

[kwunder]

I did have a prog called FAVORG which I used to get all the website icons to display correctly in my favourites folder. I no longer have it and the links to download it have finished. Is there any alternative program I can use to get the site icons back, rather than the dull "blue e" that windows displays by default

Thanks in advance

I just noticed, YOU started that other thread, so I guess it wasn't helpful after all. "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing....."

I just downloaded a program called Favicons which sounds like what you want. Maybe your old program (Favorg)had a different name.

Lockergnome mentioned it about 2 weeks ago. Go to Chris Pirellos Lockergnome site (

http://www.lockergnome.com/)and

search for "Favicons" for his hot link.

It gets the special web icons, saves them in a dedicated folder on your HD, and validates all your favorites links while it searches for the icons.

Maybe this would work:

Lets try it another way.

Go to google.com and type in "FAVORG". The first pick should be the download page from ZIff Davis PC Magazine, who wrote the utility.

The current version seems to be v1.2

Good Luck
