I recently put a Yahoo page into my favorites folder. Much to my surprise,
the icon displayed in the folder listing was not the 'e' that M$'s IE5
assigns to all html documents, but rather their own custom icon. The
document's extension is .html; I tried a quick look through the source and
didn't find a term that would override the default documents type's icon.
Anyone no how they do this?

Put a 16x16 pixel .ico file in your root directory named favicon.ico. Make
it look like you want it to.
it look like you want it to.

This only works for IE5, but you will find instructions here:
