Greetings,

I have noticed something happing on the Tabs for Internet Explorer 7.0.6... Using Vista Ultimate with SP1.

In my Links, I have this web site, Autoblog.com, and the other day I notice its icon was eBay's icon.

I ran AM-Deadlink to get the Favicons. It updated the icon on the Favorite List.

But when I bring up that web site, in the Tab of Internet Explorer it still shows embay's icon. eBay's site is the generic icon.

This is the only that I notice at this time.

Hi W. Kirk

You can delete the Temporary Internet Files to clear the favicons o
the tab and in the address bar to have IE reload them when you go bac
to the site. This should reset them and have the proper ones showin
again. This tutorial will show you how to if needed

Hope this helps

Shawn,

Thanks, but I had to reboot the other day and everything seems to back to normal.

I find it odd that the icons would change like that.

By the way, this is my laptop, and I leave in on/then it hibernates. But ever now and then,
I get updates that require a reboot. There has been times where it has been on for over
a week.

Thanks.

I'm glad to hear that it is back to normal now. My uptime gets u
there sometimes, but since I'm always experimenting, I usually end u
having to restart the computer often. LO
