I've been putting a 16x16, 256 colour icon called favicon.ico in the root directory of my site.. with the view to it being used by IE5 as the default icon.

When I try to bookmark my site, it crashes my computer (NT4) any ideas?

Does this happen when you bookmark other sites with the same feature, or just yours?

Thanks for the feedback,

TWTCommish:
No, I can bookmark other sites with custom icons, it only crashes on my own. Other people can successfully bookmark my site also.

I thought that favicons could only be 16 color
