What is Favicon.ico? Personalise Your Site's Bookmark
by Christopher Heng, thesitewizard.com

Some time back, I had an email from a visitor asking me how I
managed to have thefreecountry.com's icon displayed next to my URL in
his browser's location bar. In fact, had he checked carefully, he would
also have noticed that the icon is also used in his "Favorites" menu.
