Replacing the Icy Phoenix favicon on your site and in your Browser Window:

Copy your new favicon.ico to /images/favicon.ico (and also to your forum root - Though not required).

Note: It must be an .ico file and nothing else, If you want to convert a .gif etc, you can do that Here.

IE7 Internet Options: Clear your Cache, Cookies, Temporary Internet Files and Browsing History (Including Offline Content)

To change the ico in the Favourites Toolbar:

Right-Click > Properties > Web Document > Change Icon > Browse to the icon on your computer.

If you're still stuck, then further help is available Here.

FF Firefox Peculiarities: When you add any site to the Bookmarks list with FF, its favicon isn't displayed immediately. Only when you click on the bookmark will Firefox load the favicon and save it.

You should now have your "New" Icy Phoenix Favicon in both your site url and your browser.

As always, replacing cached images seems to be the biggest hurdle. Particularly with the way IE handles them.

IE is a bit like a pain in the a..

It´s just to slow. Microsoft got quiet stuck with it.
Thats like sitting in a racing car with the handbrakes pulled. it probably runs faster backwards than forwards.
They should take a look at the way FF handels all that.
the speed difference is enormous. it take´s about half off the time to open a site with FF then with IE.

there are worlds between this 2 explorers.

And what the hell does the speed of MS or FF have to do with adding favicons for either.

Please don't troll threads to add useless comments, just because you favour one or another particular browser - I'd like to think that we are all too grown up here to post such childish indifferences, or preferences.

Ups

I AM SORRY
