Issue Summary
The favicon.ico of my site can show up in Firefox3, Chrome5, Opera10, but NOT in IE6 and IE8.
I tried the Favicon module, but seems not working.
I installed the Favicon module to sites/all/modules, enabled it on my site, clicked the button "Clear cached data" at the page of admin/settings/performance, then use IE to refresh my site. My favicon.ico still doesn't show up.
My Drupal 6.17 is under eaxmple.com/druple, not in root. Does the Favicon module work well in this case?
Something wrong for me?

The favicon should display fine in IE8 if you've linked it correctly. However earlier versions of IE have trouble displaying it. In earlier IE versions you should see your favicon when bookmarking the page.

I'm getting this problem in IE7, 8 and 9.

However trying to access the favicon at www.site.com/favicon.ico works fine.

Just found that IE7,8,9 all ignore the favicon if there is a http authentication password in place. Removing the password made the favicon display (after clearing the browser cache).

Hi carn1, how exactly did you remove the password? I'm having the same issue in IE, my favicon doesn't show up. It shows up fine in FF and Chrome.

I'm referring to a HTTP password, that is a password that popups up in your web browser to allow you view a web page, defined in a .htaccess file for apache, it's nothing to do with Drupal authentication.
