Sadly.. I can't upload to the localhost directory at the moment. Emailing my admin for access to see if uploading it there will fix things. If that is the problem it would mean I'm stuck using the same favicon for everything or going the way of the .gif file and use the link element line for a gif icon.
I'm not sure exactly how apache handles this if the favicon is set to the localhost dir in the httpd.conf and you set it to your on own dir using an insert in your HEAD section of your index file. Logically i would think IE or FF would listen to the HEAD section of the index file but how logical is everything when it comes to internet?
Maybe you are on to the problem here, good luck with it anyway and sorry we couldn't help you more.
