Favicon's are 'Custom Icon for your websites'.
A Favicon is a multi-resolution image included on nearly all professional developed sites
I have always preferred to call out favicons specifically with a link tag in the html head tag this way I ensure that my code, not the server, is handling the file. So now, how do you do this in SharePoint? Here are my steps
Drag a favicon.ico file to the Images directory of your MOSS site with SharePoint designer.
Add the following line to your Master Page at the bottom of the head section right before the /head tag:
(link rel="shortcut icon" href="/images/favicon.ico")
Check-in, publish, and approve your Master Page so that anonymous folks can see the change.
Refresh the site, and you should see the favicon
