Thanks for not being a capitalist. This works perfectly.

Works fine , as well in Slimjet browsers, as in Edge and Chrome browsers. This is the solution , to clean-up websites without a own logo transmitted. Keep up the good work !!! ( this app doesn't claim to get favicons... You can use any icon or png file with a picture for displaying as the website you want it . For myself, I do capture (part) of pictures from the website I need the favicon for, and save it as JPG first, then convert it to .ico or .png. Until now, I always got the results I wanted......)
