Favorite icons are icon files that appear on the address bar to the left of the url, or next to a bookmark if that page had a favicon.ico.  They are icon (.ico) files usually named favicon.ico 48x48 pixels.  By default your browser looks in the root of the site for a favicon.ico file.

If you would like two pages to have different favorite icons add this to the header section of the page.  Where the href is the actual location and name of your file.

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/images/favicon.ico" />
