Hiya,

Okay... I've got YouTube in my bookmarks and when I'm logged in the favicon is the typical YouTube red & white icon. However, when I logout or when I startup Firefox, the bookmark icon (which is still directed at YouTube) appears as the multicolour Google icon ("g").

Can I make it so the favicon is *locked* so as to appear as it's true destination (ie. YouTube)?

Mike

This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.
