Hi,

I tried using the above code to retrieve a favicon and display it
in a canvas
it's not working and I think I am missing the code that puts it in
the canvas
How can I do this?
What you are missing is the code to convert the favicon.ico file into
a picture. Just so happens that I have that here:
http://developer.dreystone.com/icoviewer.php
The project includes two encrypted classes which you need to drag to
your project. Then you create a new IconSet by passing the data
retrieved from the favicon.ico file; either string or the FolderItem.
Dim i As New IconSet(TemporaryFolder.Child("favicon.ico"))
Dim p As Picture = i.Favicon
