Where?

In a combobox control on your form?

In the webbrowser's address bar (that's not related to the VB.NET
programming language)?

I think that you are a bit out of topic but i will try to answer. :)

From what I know in order to do this you need to place an icon, not sure of
size, i think 16x16 in the *root* folder of your site (where index.html is)
AND name it favicon.ico.

I think only Internet explorer can then show the icon next to the URL. Not
sure if later versions of Netscape, etc. can do this too. This is because if
favicon.ico exists then I.E. will automatically load it and place it next to
the url.

However, right now i cannot see it at the codeproject website, despite the
fact that it's there. Maybe some settings at my browser at work. google
favicon and you'll get the details and possibly examples and browser
settings.

Hope it helps.

The way I do it on my page:
place an ico 16x16 somewhere, then place the following line in the header
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="urltoicon" type="image/x-icon" />

Mozilla will show the icon right off the bat. IE will show it when it's
bookmarked.
