How do I get the proper URL icons to appear in my
favorites list?
 
Hi Steve - These are known as favicons.ico (Favorite Icons) and they
normally will only last until your Internet Explorer Temp files are cleared.

You need to get a program called FavOrg 1.4 here:

http://uk.geocities.com/personel44/files/favorg.zip

or Version 1.2 here:

http://www.themes.myqth.com/Downloads/favorg.zip

(still free at these links) which will allow you to save them permanently
in a different folder and re-associate your favorites with the stored icons.
(It will also verify whether your links in Favorites are stll good, BTW.)
