Set a icon to a web application

Hi,
I would like to set an different icon, than explorer icon, to my web
application. When we visit a web page, usually in address bar appears IE
icon before the address. What I want is to substitute that icon to another,
like happens when we visit, for example, http://www.codeproject.com .
How can I do that?
Programming ASP.NET with VB.NET
Thank's (if you try to help me)
Hope this help you (if I try to help you)
rucai dont see any difference for www.codeproject.com

Hi Ruca,
Do you mean the favorite.ico have a look for that on Google.

Try something like
<link rel="icon" href="http://links.10026.com/?link=/favicon.ico" type="image/ico">

This has nothing to do with ASP.NET, it's just a feature in Internet
Explorer.
You only have to provide an icon with a specific format and name
in the root of your website.
For more information, do a Google search for "favicon".

Hi Ruca,
You are right, when you delete the cache from IE 6.0 it is gone. However
that is in my opinion an IE bug. It is with all favicons. I thought that in
Mozilla and Netscape it stays.
I made a mistake it has to be favicon instead of favorite as others wrote,
sorry for that.

A tip: look for the utility FavOrg, it downloads all favicons for your
favorites and preserves them outside of the browsercache.
