Webmasters often create a 16x16 icon (named .favico in the root
directory), which users can save along with the site's link in their IE
Favorites to quickly identify the site. Favicons are stored in your
temporary Internet files. When you clear your Temp files, it clears the
icon. FavOrg will help you get back the icons as well as store and
organize them.
