My problem is when I restart my computer all my Custom Web
Page Icons are lost. I checked the MS Knowledge Base and
read the information copied below. It seems to
acknowledge the problem, but I do not see any solutions.
The RESOLUTION stated makes no change in maintaining the
original icon. Multiple Custom icons initially go into my
Temp Internet Files as Favicon.ico, but they do not appear
after reboot.
Please Help,
Tom

with it.

Properties dialog box, and then click the first icon in
the list.

Explorer icon. The Favicon.ico file displays a list of
custom icons for the Web pages.

They are stored in Temporary Internet Files. They go away when they age out
or TIF is cleared. Try FavOrg:
