Important Note: All icons have been placed in zip format, due to webmasters hotlinking to the files. I invite any webmaster to feel free to download one of the icons for their personal use, and uploading to their site as http://yourwebsite.com/favicon.ico and suggested to place the favicon.ico in all directories.

What a favicon.ico is intended for and looks like

When you have a 32x32 pixel icon uploaded to your server and people bookmark your web page, the icon should display in an 16x16 pixel format in their I.E. browser along with your URL.

Upload to your server, and rename icon to "favicon.ico" in the main root directory. For instance www.yourdomain.com/favicon.ico
A note of interest here:
I found an interesting post on the web:
http://www.ozzu.com/ftopic255.html
Bigwebmaster, Site Admin for the Forum states in his post:
I was looking around today on if it was possible to make .ico files with Adobe Photoshop. Before I would always download some free program whenever I needed to make an ico file, as by default Adobe does not. So today I was looking around and found this excellent plugin for Adobe Photoshop that gives you the option to save a file as a .ico
Go here:

For me I had to download the Windows package, which you can also get by clicking here:
http://www.telegraphics.com.au/sw/icoformat-win-1.3b3.zip
Now all you have to do is extract icoformat.8bi to your plugins folder in adobe. Now the next time you start Adobe you will have the option to save, make, create, and load .ico files!
At first I thought this sounded too good to be true, but despite my skepticism, I took a look-see over on the site, and downloaded this zip file. I carried the Plug In file over to my Adobe Plug-Ins, and tried it out. I reloaded Adobe and sure enough, the option was installed into the system to open .ico files, editing them, and saving in .ico format, just like the guy said it was.
So if you've got a copy of Adobe Photoshop -- I would highly recommend checking out the above download. Awesome!

I use Netscape and I have favicon.ico on my personal web pages & it works fine. Here's the code I use on my site: link REL="shortcut icon" HREF="favicon.ico"
I use Netscape Navigator 7.1. It may be that earlier versions could not see the favicon.ico, but this version works very well indeed. I thought you might be interested in incorporating this information into your page.***
Your site includes the following information:
