When I first put favicon.ico files onto both sites, Firefor did not display either. On the Road Warrior site, no favicon was displayed, while on the Comcast site the default Comcast favicon was displayed. When I added the <LINK REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/sitedirectory/favicon.ico"> lines to both sites, the Road Warrior favicon displayed properly while the Comcast site continued to display the Comcast detault favicon. I have viewed both sites using alternate browsers, including IE, Opera, and Netscape and they display the correct favicons for both sites. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. First use an ISP with a default favicon which displays correcty 2. Use a site without it's own domain name 3. Place a favicon in the root directory of the site 4. Add the <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/~sitedirectory/favicon.ico"> to the site's heading. 5. Now view the site and bookmark it Actual Results: The default favicon is displayed Expected Results: The site's favicon as stored in the site's root directory, and referenced by <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="/~sitedirectory/favicon.ico"> should be displayed
