Did someone say 'acquisition'?

You could just have one icon in the root folder and let it be acquired
:-)

As to what this icon is for:
Fire up IE and go to the bookmarks menu. See those little icons? That's
favicon. If one isn't found, the default one is used.

You have two choices: Put up with the errors and stick to your
principles, or do a bitmap and sell your soul ;-)

It makes little to no difference to IE users...

cheers,
