you know when you add sites to your favs list...
most have the standard IE icon next to it, but some you save have a different icon there of the website owners choice
how do you go about making it so there is a different icon there if you save a site to your favs list?

Its an icon (.ico) file. You can get programs that make them, or you can make a 16-bit (I think) bmp and rename it a .ico. Name it favicon.ico
Then put it in the root folder of your website and put this in the <head> code:
<link rel=shortcut icon href=/favicon.ico>
