That's Mozilla not automagically loading favicon.ico, Konqueror does it, as 
does Phoenix. By default, Mozilla turns that off. It can be enabled in 
Mozilla via a pref in user.js. According to Moz's 0.9.8's release notes:

# Mozilla no longer reads /favicon.ico images by default although Mozilla 
still reads page icons defined with the <link> tag. Set the following pref to 
turn the feature back on.

 user_pref("browser.chrome.favicons",true);
