If you include


link REL="shortcut icon" HREF="favicon.ico" TYPE="image/x-icon"


in the page head tags, IE will use the icon in the address bar regardless of whether the user bookmarks the page. If the page is bookmarked, IE saves the favicon with the link.

Mozilla (1.4b) will download it for use in the address bar, but doesn't save the icon when the page is bookmarked. At least none of my other bookmarked pages (with favicons) are displayed in any bookmark list.
