web site icons on the Links Bar

[Sprim]

I use WindowsXP + IE6 on standalone pc at home and ditto
in my place of work.

On the Links bar, I have created folders in which to put
fairly interesting web site links, but the really
important use-em-often sites, I drag straight to the Links
bar so they are always visible when I am in IE.

Previously, the web site's own logo would accompany the
link onto the Links bar, but now, that does not happen.

So now, all the links are preceded by the classic
blue "e". Whereas previously, for example, my Google link
on the Links Bar was preceded by Google's own colourful
logo. (Oddly enough, on my home pc, the Google link has
retained its colourful logo, but everything else has
turned to a blue "e".)

Does anyone know why this is the case? Is there a setting
that I have overlooked which will make the individual
logos come back again?
