Default Favicon.ico - What am I doing Wrong?

Hi

I am just in the process of developing my new page template for my site revamp There are no Links as this is a Template!!

I have adhered to many a step by step guide, used a plug-in for Photoshop CSS to convert the favicon.ico, uploaded it to the root folder and added <link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> in the head section of the document.

But it only works properly in Netscape and Opera and not Firefox or MSIE. MSIE seems to be the worst offender. I tried a PNG format before and it woked in FF and nothing else.

Can I use more than one favicon (eg PNG) and how do I get any icon working in MSIE? I have tried clicking Refresh and Ctrl & F5 and adding '?'s to the end of the URL.

Any help will be gratefully received and kudo'd/

Thanks
