772786 - Wrong favicons displayed in the Recently Bookmarked folder

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Simona Badau, Desktop QA]

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0

When starting Firefox with a clean profile five bookmarks are displayed in the Recently Bookmarked folder, from which four of them have the Dino Head logo while the last one (Getting started) is missing the favicon (Bug 712098). 

After opening all the Bookmarks the favicons are changing:
- for the fist two: "About Us" and "Get Involved", the favicons (Dino Head logo) remain the same. If opening these two bookmarks the favicons that are seen in the left side of the tabs are also the Dino head logos.

 - for the third and the fifth bookmarks: "Customize Firefox" and "Getting Started" the favicons change. The favicon for "Customize Firefox" changes from the Dino Head logo into the Mozilla logo and the favicon for "Getting Started" changes from an empty favicon into a Mozilla logo also. 
If opened, both of the bookmarks keep the Mozilla logo on the left side of the tab.

- for the fourth bookmark - "Help and Tutorials" - the Dino Head logo is still displayed, but if opened the Mozilla logo is shown in the left side of the tab.

The inconsistency between the favicons displayed for the first time on a clean profile and after opening them is also reproducible on Firefox 4.0.1.

Because "Help and Tutorials"(http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/help/) is redirected to "Mozilla Knowledge..."(http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb)....

yeah, it's hard to keep in-product icons synced with websites changes.

These got updated at some stage, as we're no longer showing Dino icons, however I'll file a new bug on updating a couple of the icons as there are now some that are out of date.
