Not worth it's own thread:
Has someone hacked into Sky's website and set the favicon or is this a cockup on my FireFox?

It does that. So far, Opera's the only browser I've seen that doesn't hate the favicon.ico.
IE ignores it until you add the page to favourites, and then if you clear the cache it deletes the icon. Firefox appears to "lose" icons from time to time, or just use the wrong one. I've also seen pages where a lot of the images are swapped around or even from other sites owing to the Firefox cache getting trashed.
