Favicon (short for Favorites Icon) is a feature that makes it possible to associate a special logo or other small graphic with a web page. The favicon is usually displayed next to the web site address. Much like the way shortcut icons are used on the computer desktop to distinguish computer programs and files, favicons can be used to personalize or brand your web sites.

All current versions of the major browsers support favicons, including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Mozilla, Netscape, Opera, Konqueror, Safari etc...
