Stupid question, but what are the logos called that appear on many website links when you click on them? Also, is there a way to make these appear when saved as bookmarks in Firefox and IE7?

firefox has an add-on that will add a colored box to the sites that don't have a favicon. i forget what it's called, maybe colored favicons. lol

@jack7h3r1pp3r,

ALWAYS log on to EVERY WEBSITE and DOWNLOAD EVERYTHING offered on the site especially those with Colored Favicons (LOL) (LOL).

Know you will appreciate the humor in this advice? :) :)

How are you doing today ??
