On my computers the PH favicon has changed into BT. What's that all about or has there been another takeover?

Nope that's firefox being a hom. Happens sometimes. Google for a fix.

Just noticed it's only doing it on my Vista based Laptop with IE7. The XP IE7 is OK.
Strange.

I have always found the favicon to be a little temperamental... something I did read the other day on the web about this was...

"Favicon and IE are a poor match. Hopefully, this will be addressed in the next release of IE. Sometimes you can coax IE into displaying the favicon by gently tugging at the default icon in the address bar using a drag and drop motion. Even once you get IE to display the favicon, it is likely to stop doing so at any time without notice."

Not sure how true that is as it is from the internet and you can't trust what you read here smile
