No icon at all appearing in address bar

[Guest]

Hello, I've searched this group for my answer, but haven't seen it yet:

Eventually, I would like favicons to appear in my address bar. However,
currently no icon at all -- not even the default IE icon -- appears.
Instead, I see the even more generic Windows "image" icon.

When I add a page to favorites, the favicon (or default IE icon) appears in
the favorites, but the address bar doesn't change - it still shows the
generic image icon.

How can I get the address bar to start showing images again? Any ideas?
I'm running very current software (IE6 on XP SP2).

Thanks!
Geoff

Thanks for the suggestion. However, this isn't a favicon problem. No icon
appears in my address bar - even the default "blue e". I need to figure out
how to get any icon at all to reappear in my address bar.

Thanks!
