Favorites Icon

(I know some people don't like Internet Explorer, but I do. )

Brandon, do you know about the "Favorites Icon" you can post to CD which will show up on IE's Favorites menu?

I come to CD a lot, but I don't have it as my home page, so I usually pick it from my Favorites menu. It would be cool if CD showed up in the menu with a distinctive icon so it would be easier to pick out in the crowd. (If you have used IE 5 or greater, you may have seen some sites that show up on the favorites menu with their own icon.)

The way you can do this is to post a standard (I think) WinDoze (a bone to the M$ bashers) icon file named FAVICON.ICO in your root directory. (Or you can link to it in your HTML code.) See this for more details.
