Favorites Icon

GA

On my Favorites Bar I have several websites that have
their own log. Occassionally, lately when I log on to
Internet Explorer 6 the icon is back to the default (e).
I can click on the website...hit "Add to Favorite" and
when the prompt comes up saying that "you already have
it..do you want to overide..saying "Yes" brings back the
websites icon in front of the website. but after a
couple of days all of a suddden it will disappear again,
back to the default icon. Anyone know how to make the
website icons permanent? Thanks.
