Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3

The favicon displayed in the bookmarks has nothing to do with the site it is
associated with. E.g., in one of the two occurances of this problems, the google
logo was used as a favicon for a site that has nothing to do with Google. When I
click on the bookmark there is no favicon in the address bar although there was
one associated with the bookmark. The spurrious favicons are actual favicons
from other sites I bookmarked. 

Details that may or may not be relevant:
The two occurances are for bookmarks to 2 parts of the same site.
The IP is used to bookmark the sites
(http://66.170.193.77/cgi-bin/ib3/ikonboard.cgi).
I first occured just before or just after I upgraded to 1.0.3. The second
favicon got modified a few days later. I don't remember doing anything special
then. After the favicon is modified, the spurrious one remain even after logging
out and back in.
If I delete the bookmark and recreate it, there is no favicon. However one may
get created at a later (has not happened yet).

Reproducible: Always
