If you don't use favicon.ico, is this one way you can see how many people bookmark your site?
... NO, you canīt count bookmarkers that way, becasue netscape (from v6.0) requests the favicon.ico on every "first" request of an url.

IE only requests the favicon.ico when a site got bookmarked, it will show up next to the site description in your favourites folder.
