| I would to say that Firefox show favicons faster than IE, sometimes you need to bookmark site if you want to see your favicon. |

Not only that, FireFox supports animated favicon as well which IE or any other browser like Opera doesn't supports...
How ever Favicon as visible as book mark in IE 7.0 like FF too...

I think it was the issue with IE 6...
Now it is time for IE 7.
It is better than FF and also faster with FavIcon.
Microsoft guys rocks.. |
