I have several desktop shortcuts to various frequently used websites. I don't know why more than 3 of the desktop icons keep coming up with the Firefox icon instead of the website's icon; i.e. Yahoo has a purple icon with a large letter Y. Firefox takes over and gives me a Firefox icon of a foxtail. This gets confusing when so many of my desktop icons look the same.
