    Its a favicon

    Make a small graphic sized 16px x 16px and name the file favicon.ico
    Upload this to your web directory (where your html files are)

    On your webpage include this between the <head> and </head> tags

    <link REL="SHORTCUT ICON" HREF="http://yourdomain.com/favicon.ico">
    Code (markup):
    Obviously replace yourdomain.com with the correct domain

    you may place a favicon if you have your own copy righted logo.

    I wrote a little tutorial on my site about favicons a while back, some people have told me that it's quite good - i'll let you decide for yourself on that one :)

    I see that you most likely have this sorted now, but it might help some other people :)
