Probably you will be suffering after changing the favicon more than once, just keep that in mind; after every change of ico file change the href="favicon.ico?v=#
-# means count of change-.

View source on SO, and you will see this link
element:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="http://cdn.sstatic.net/stackoverflow/img/favicon.ico">

It's called the icon of your web-page. To include this in page use
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" />
you insert this tag with in head
tag and can be easily created using ms paint
