When sending a website as shortcut to desktop, the original favicon icon disappears and is replaced by the Firefox icon. Why? I am using Windows 7 and Firefox version 3.6.12.

Firefox uses Mozilla default icons instead of the websites' when a page is dragged to desktop as shortcut. I don't have the same problem when using IE 8, so the issue is with Mozilla and not with my computer. Please advise.

If you drag a link or favicon on the left end of the location bar onto the desktop to create an internet shortcut then that shortcut gets the icon of the default browser.

If you want a different icon (favicon) then you have to assign that icon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties).

You can usually get the favicon if you append "favicon.ico" to the main domain of a website (e.g. http://www.mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder or see if you can find it in "Tools > Page Info > Media".
