ICO

[Jason]

Microsoft said to:

Associate the Icon with Your Web Page
After creating the icon, you must associate it with your
Web page. One way is to save the icon with the default
file name of favicon.ico in the root directory of your
domain-for example, www.microsoft.com/favicon.ico. Each
time your Web page is added to a user's favorites,
Internet Explorer automatically searches for this file and
places the icon next to all the favorites and quick links
originating from your site

But whin i go to save the 16 X16 icon with the
name "www.microsoft.com/favicon.ico" it tells me that the
name is an invalid file name and will not save.

Use your own domain as it says.. It is certainly not www.microsoft.com

You are reading from here but using the example on someone else's web
site, not your own.

You were quoting from an article for those who want to put favicons on
their web sites.

If you want to add icons, then change the icons in the Properties of
each favorite. Rightclick on one and select Properties and then Change
Icons.
