    Fine an app to create .ico files, and save is as favicon.ico in your root www folder, I think.

    You need this code in the head of your page:

    <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" type="image/png" href="/images/icon.png" />

    Obviously, if you're using normal HTML you don't need the extra backslash at the end. You can also use a normal .ico file, changing the tag appropriately.

    You can also use favicon.ico, but that means it will appear for every page - using that tag should give you more control.

    you have to make a 16x16 image, then under your hosting account, if it is a cPanel account go into, public_html, if it isnt a cPanel, through your FTP, put it in the same folder as your inex.htm/php/asp and between the head tags insert what mike_w suggested but try this:

    <link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" type="image/png" href="favicon.ico">

    if that doesnt work try,
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

    Should work...
