I have spent the last two days trying to get a 16 X 16 icon to appear in IE. I placed the .ico file in the root folder of my site and it appears in Firefox but nada in IE. My boss needs this for a client and thinks I can find out how to do it for IE. HELP!!!

Odd thing about them, those browsers, they all handle it differnt. Make sure you have a favicon.ico in the "root" directory of the html file, then also, try adding this statement in the

I quote: "Internet Explorer browsers (as of version 6.x) associate favicons with bookmarks. So you must first bookmark the web page. The favicon will appear on the browser address bar and on the Favorites menu, the second time you visit the bookmarked page. If the favicon doesn't appear even after bookmarking and revisiting the web page, restarting the browser may help."
