Can someone tell me why my favicon at http://www.goreybibliography.com/
is suddenly not working on IE7? It used to, I'm not sure exactly when
it stopped working. I still have it saved as a favorite, I've cleared
my cache, rebooted,etc but it simply will not work any more. Other
favicons do show up from other pages. What am I doing wrong?

OK, so that one just suddenly started working again. But how about
this one www.fearofdolls.com
the code is identical except the URL, which you can copy and paste and
see that the file is there.
So what am I doing wrong? Safari will not show  it either, at leat
Safari for windows.

I have found the URL has to be the same in the properties of the bookmark
and the IE7 web address bar for it to save the favicon.

Woulnd't that always be the case anyway, if you Add To Favorites,
won't it take the URL in the address bar?
