I've noticed that lately in Firefox (version 1.0), a couple of my bookmarks' icons are wrong. This has happened once at home and once at work. I'm running Windows XP at both and have cleared my cache and everything, but I can't get them to change.

Here's what happened: One of my bookmarks is Snopes.com. They have a little icon for the bookmark that is a black box with UL (for urban legends). I also have The Boondocks cartoon bookmarked. For a long time, the Boondocks icon was just the general sheet like most of them are. Then all of a sudden it started using the UL from Snopes as its icon. Why did it do this? And how do I make it stop?

I have a similar problem with two different web pages at my work computer, too. I have installed Firefox 1.0.1 at home, hoping it would fix the problem, but it hasn't.

Obviously this isn't anything that's a major problem, but it is annoying, and I was wondering if anyone else had this problem before and how they fixed it. (I'm assuming deleting the bookmark and re-marking it would fix it, but that doesn't address the real problem - whatever it may be that's making them take on the wrong icon in the first place.)

Thanks in advance!
