Hello, i have noticed for a long time that some sites use to specify the favicon in two places, like this:


<link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" />
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico" />


Dos anyone know why?
Is there some browser issue, that needs both ?
I have only set the shortcut icon line, on my site.
