WHEN I SEND A SHORTCUT OF THE WEB PAGE (OF INTERNET
EXPLORER ) TO THE DESKTOP IT FREQUENTLY HAS THE UNIQUE
WEB PAGE'S LOGO. HOWEVER, WHEN I RE-START WINDOWS OR
REFRESH THE DESKTOP IT USUALLY REVERTS BACK TO THE
DEFAULT "e" AS THE EXPLORER ICON. HOW CAN I KEEP THE
UNIQUE WEB PAGE'S LOGO INSTEAD??
FRUSTRATED,
T.N.

Hi Tony,

They normally will only last until your Internet Explorer Temp files are
cleared.

This program will allow you to save the favicons.ico (Favorite Icons)
permanently in a different folder and re-associate your favorites with the
stored icons.

Workaround:

Navigate to the Temporary Internet Files, and drag the icons to the desktop
and rename them to whatever name you like.

Create a folder called Icon Selection. Move all of the renamed favicons to
this folder placed in the root directory of C. Right click on the Icon,
select Browse and navigate to your Icon Selection folder. Choose the
renamed favicon and click ok. These icons will be permanent.
