I'm not convinced that that approach will work with any browser!

Try placing a ~

XML

<link runat="server" rel="shortcut icon"href="~/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
<link runat="server" rel="icon" href="~/favicon.ico" type="image/ico" />

This also needs to be done in the <head> section of the page.
