I have Idnet and the forum in my Favorites but with the old logo.   How do I replace them with the latest version?

Is this favorites stored in Internet Explorer or another browser Noreen?

Internet Explorer, Steve.   I also have it on the bottom toolbar.

I don't use Windows or IE so not the best to advise, favicons I know are a dark art and although one would think a simple deletion and then a save would update I can't confirm that's the case.

This I found

http://www.simplehelp.net/2009/06/12/how-to-restore-all-your-ie-bookmark-favicons-at-once/

But it's over 3 years old and uses a program called Faviconiser

Zappadpj will probably know the simplest route hopefully someone will advise further.

I would have thought the easiest first thing to try would be to clear your cache, Noreen.  Do you know how to do that?

Also, have you tried deleting your browser history, Noreen?  That might force a favicon refresh.  Delete Browsing History (on the Tools menu) can be used to clear the cache and the history store, but you may want to keep your cookies, to avoid having to log in everywhere again.

Thanks for the suggestions but I think that I'll just live with it for now as it doesn't bother me all that much. :)

It might just suddenly update of it's own accord, Noreen.  Stranger things have happened.  :)
