Refresh favicon

Guest

A while back, I bookmarked my web site in my favorites, and as expected, the
favicon appeared in the favorites folder and in the address bar.

However, I recently changed my favicon on my web site. Although I deleted
my bookmark, cleared my temporary internet files folder, cleared history and
all cookies, when I re-bookmark my web site, I always get the old icon. I
bookmarked the site on a different computer to make absolutely sure, and it
does get the new favicon.

Does anybody know how to get the new favicon on my computer ?

Pull the old icon off the url bar a few times - the new icon should jump in
place. You have to delete the old bookmark then bookmark it again.
