You can also add
<link rel="[shortcut ]icon" type="image/png" href="/path/to/icon.png" />
Although this will not work on IE. Shortcut icons work very variably in IE anyway and even then only when you bookmark a page (sometimes). I've rarely got them showing up when I used IE in the ol' days.. I use PNG's as they are easier to make in Fireworks and work 100% of the time in everything else.

However this doesn't work for IE. Works fine other browsers. IE is also picky about the file format.
