When I create a icon for a web page on desktop it will sometimes after reboot
loose the sites icon image and replace it with a standard icon. It is like
if it does not find the site fast enough it will be replaced with a standard
icon. Is there a way to save the icon's image to the PC and use that.
Thanks
