When I put a website Icon on my desktop, how do I make firefox use the Icon native to that website instead of the default Firefox Icon?
When I drag and drop a website onto my desktop, how can I make Firefox use the icon native to that website instead of the default firefox icon?
I have even gone painstakingly (SEVERAL TIMES) to the sites with IE, dragged the site onto my desktop in order to obtain the site native icons for my desktop (and deleted the ones with the Firefox icon) .... but they all soon revert to the default Firefox icon.

I know how to create a desktop shortcut.
I want the icon that comes from the individual website.....NOT the Firefox default icon.
If I create the desktop shortcut by dragging and dropping from Firefox I always get the Firefox default icon.
If I create the desktop shortcut by dragging and dropping from IE I get the website's own Icon on my desktop....which is what I want.
However, as soon as I re-boot or refresh my desktop....they all change to the Firefox default icon.

How do I change the icon associated with an object?
To change the icon associated with an object:
1 Right-click the icon. The context menu will appear.
2 Click Properties.
3 Click the Change Icon button.
4 Click the icon of your choice.
5 Click OK.
Note: Not all icons can be changed. If you do not see the Change Icon button, the icon cannot be changed.
I don't want icons from the Firefox library.
I want the icon that comes from the website I'm making the shortcut for. (If you go to a site in IE you will see the site generated icon at the left end of the URL in the address field.)
If I make IE my default browser I am able to get (and keep) those icons as shortcuts on my desktop without a problem.
I want to keep Firefox as my default browser.
So I want to know how to make Firefox accept the icon that comes from the website like IE does.
I have even gone to the trouble to use IE to create the shortcuts with the site specific icons.....but after I do that...... FIREFOX CONVERTS THEM TO THE FIREFOX DEFAULT ICON as soon as I re-boot or refresh my desktop.
I generally prefer Firefox as a browser....but If there's no fix.....I'm going to dump Firefox.
Windows controls the shortcut images which show on the desktop. Only IE shows the website favicon image for the shortcut when IE is set as the default browser.
Save the website favicon image and use that you use Change Icon... in Properties for that shortcut - Browse... to the location where you saved that image. Don't use the program icon that Windows offers.
Try to toggle the browser.shell.shortcutFavicons on the about:config page.
