Actually, if you just open up IE and go to the page where the favicon.ico is, 
and then add the page to your favorites the favorites should now have that icon 
as it's icon.

Have you tried that?

Has anyone sucessfully got the favicon to work?  I'm got an favicon.ico that I 
created in an icon editor, saved it at 16x16x256 yet if I point to it, my 
browser wants to open or save it.  If i choose open, the icon opens up in my 
icon viewer.  Pointing to Yahoo or MSNBC for example (www.yahoo.com/favicon.ico 
or www.msnbc.com/favicon.ico) simply displays the icon right in IE.  My icon is 
no different than their in dimensions and color depth so I think it's the HTTP 
server balling it up.
