Icon on Internet Explorer Tab.
Greetings,

I have noticed something happing on the Tabs for Internet Explorer 7.0.6... Using Vista Ultimate with SP1.

In my Links, I have this web site, Autoblog.com, and the other day I notice its icon was eBay's icon.

I ran AM-Deadlink to get the Favicons. It updated the icon on the Favorite List.

But when I bring up that web site, in the Tab of Internet Explorer it still shows embay's icon. eBay's site is the generic icon.

This is the only that I notice at this time.

Hi W. Kirk,

You can delete the Temporary Internet Files to clear the favicons on
the tab and in the address bar to have IE reload them when you go back
to the site. This should reset them and have the proper ones showing
again. This tutorial will show you how to if needed.

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Re: Icon on Internet Explorer Tab.
Shawn,

Thanks, but I had to reboot the other day and everything seems to back to normal.

I find it odd that the icons would change like that.

By the way, this is my laptop, and I leave in on/then it hibernates. But ever now and then,
I get updates that require a reboot. There has been times where it has been on for over
a week.

Thanks.

W. Kirk,

I'm glad to hear that it is back to normal now. My uptime gets up
there sometimes, but since I'm always experimenting, I usually end up
having to restart the computer often. LOL
