How to see icon of bookmark websites after clearing history?

Whenever I clear cookies, history, I see that my bookmark icons change back to the IE defaut icon. How to make the icon stay there after cleaning the exlporer? I have found one way-bookmark the site again when I go there, but is there a better way?

I know I have seen this somewhere. Someone created a utility to save the favicons (that is what they are called) to your computer. I just need to find it.

I emailed it to you. Hopefully it did not fill up your hotmail account. It is only 437kb.

Thanks, but i mistakenly placed it in the trash.... without opening. I thought it was spam. But the file was big so it could not be spam. Good thing i found it back in the trash. Sorry bout that, I went through email first before reading this. Thanks alot
