Usually in FireFox when you add a site to your bookmarks, it will put the Favicon next to it. (Fark, Slashdot, ING Direct for example).

The favicon for the AT Forums shows up in the address bar, but will not show up on any of my bookmarks.

I dunno, it's just a little thing that's been bothering me.

Anyone else have this problem? or is it just me?

This is not a Forum issue.

It is a Forum Issue because the forum server isn't correctly advertising the favicon.ico - it doesn't work on every install of Firefox AND IE that I have.

That's what I thought. This is the only site it doesn't work on, so I figured it was the site's issue, not mine.

why does it matter
it only bothers me when there are 2 diff sites with the same icon other than FF's blank page icon

I set all my bookmarks on my toolbar to be just the Favicon with no text.

It's not that big a deal, but I felt it was worth bringing up.

I've discovered that Firefox eventually uses the icon from my homepage in instances like this....so now I have CNN's favicon for a bunch of my bookmarks :|

Thats because there is no favorite icon for the forum folks, at least not yet, probably chuck it in the next update.
