| Personally I use a 256 color icon with:
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="favicon.ico">
as the html code and have no problems. If the icon and the html file are not
in the same folder, you have to put ensure the path is correctly identified
in relation to the page, e.g:
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" href="images/favicon.ico">

| Even though this is the wrong group, the favicon might not work locally; it
might only work on a server. Or at least, that's my 2 cents!
