Default Icon problems returned

I still have problems with the icons reverting back to the ugly IE icon, i.e.
I only have problem with one and often just after I've visited the website in
question. When I return to the desktop the icon has changed. I've saved the
icon together with all the others in a special folder and tried over and
again to assign it to the shortcut, but no...
I've run Favorg and the URL Association Fix. It doesn't matter if I download
another icon and assign it to the shortcut, it still changes.
When I run Favorg, this shortcut is the only one that doesn't show its
original icon, so I have to get it from my icon folder and it remains for a
day or two then it's the old story again.

Any advice?

Try hitting your F5 key to refresh the Desktop and the icons on it.
