Actually, the problem here is with Mozilla.  I know you may think 
everyone thinks Mozilla is perfect, but that's far from true.  Not all 
of us share your "Mozilla is dog poo" view of things, but I think 
everyone has some ideas for improvement.  I always thought this was the 
process:

Open web site
If there is a <link>'d icon in it, use it
If there is no <link>'d icon, request /favicon.ico

I would have assumed a failure to open a web site would result in no 
favicon being fetched, but it appears that was not the case and I am 
just trying to find out if that was a fluke or if Mozilla will routine 
make a request to a dead server for a favicon

Hmm, almost 45 megs of cache and I've never seen an out of date page.  
Thta's odd, isn't it?
