It's not just IE. Firefox, Opera, Safari, etc. also fetch favicon.ico
- probably every browser that hits your site. If your webapp is set up
as the root webapp then it will receive these requests, and you should
either handle them or ignore them.

If you read around, you'll find that IE automatically (and
non-standardly) asks for (GETs) favicon.ico in various standard places -
even if you have no links to it from your served html.
Sounds like your servlet mapping is including some of these favicon.ico
requests. So I'd tighten up your s
actually in our web application we have a search feature , if we are
using that in logs we found that some functions such as user
authentication and getting path informations etc are called twice
..second time if I LOG the above details in path info I am getting
favicon.ico ...
could u tell me, h
