Brian,

Thanks for adding the zip file - and I think it is still necessary.  While
Dan's fix makes the icon visible, IE still treats it as a bitmap and you
can't save it as an icon file.  Between the two fixes, it should work great.

Thanks again for your help,

Dale

Well I'll be damned. I stand corrected that the bug could only be fixed 
in IE. Though it is still an IE bug, Dan has come up with a way to fix 
it. I don't think the zip link I added is necessary any longer, right?
