Favicons not displaying for my website visitors

Locking duplicate thread.
Please continue here: [/questions/1153107]

I have placed the following code inside my HEAD tags:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" > <link rel="icon" type="image/gif" href="/animated_favicon1.gif">

However, though the favicons show up just fine in IE 11, Firefox 50.1 does not display it. How do I fix this? I tried placing the code within the HEAD tags as well as between the HEAD and BODY tags. Instead, I get the same absolutely boring generic favicon at ever site, an "i" within a circle. :-(

The first image shows the way it I see it in Firefox 50.1 and the second shows it in IE 11.

TIA. Harry
