(Favicon.ico) Icon appears in address bar but not notebook tab (favicon.ico)

I have a 16 color 16 x 16 pixel icon (favicon.ico); 4-bit palette. I have
put the icon in the root directory of my web site, and I have also added the
<link rel="SHORTCUT ICON" ... /> HTML tag in the document header section.

The icon appears fine in FireFox's address bar, but refuses to show up in
the notebook tab. The notebook continues to show the "blank document"
generic icon.

What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this?

Thanks

A PNG or GIF file should also work.

Full tag is:

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/url/to/file">

What's the notebook? :-?
