Q1257 How do I change the bookmark's icon of the user's browser when they bookmark my homepage?

Put a 16*16 pixel windows icon file called favicon.ico on your server in the dir of the page you want to have bookmarked. Note, this is an icon image file and not a GIF image saved with an .ico extension.

This only works for Internet Explorer 5 and might be removed in future versions due to privacy issues
