USE THE SEARCH FUNCTION!

seriously, this is the second topic i've seen today about this, when there's already one here from weeks ago! oh and by the way, you just put in the same link twice... Confused

go to search, type in favicon and you will see that exactly the same site has been talked about already. Please search in future.

Or you can just use this script

P.S You can use JPG, PNG and GIF image filetypes for you icon, or if you have an icon editor (Personally if you want profesional XP icons then I would suggest 'Axialis IconWorkshop Version 5.1' although it does cost money (There are also freeware versions of icon editors there to download) and save the image wher ever so long as the image is linked in the right directory in the script, but if you do have an Icon editor then just save the file to

../favicon.ico
../../favicon.png/jpg/gif

(but I would suggest also using the script as well just to make sure).

Create image
Save as BMP
optionally convert to ICO format OR ren *.bmp *.ico
