signed. I'm disgusted that the Firefox devs copied IE's behavior and will GET /favicon.ico without being told there is one. I had 1516 requests for favicon.ico on my rinky dink little site by Firefox users last month and I neither have one nor specify anything in <link>. I would expect Firefox will honor a different file if one is specified, but that's no excuse for making an unwarranted request if one isn't.

I rather hate the favicon implementation as a whole.
