I've noticed something quite odd on my main PC.

When you save bookmarks or favourites they sometimes have a little icon by the sides of them. The strange thing is, the icon for this forum is an Ebay one. The icon for Google is Digital Village and another forum has the T Mobile icon.

Very weird.

Anyone had this happen before?

Sounds a bit strange! The thing you're talking about is a site's favicon.ico file, it's an often overlooked but nice touch to add to a site. Sounds like yours have gone a litte crazy! Clear your cache and history, or google for "clear icon cache" for a solution.

I went into properties and changed the icon size and it did the trick by resetting them. Job done. :D
