What happens if you download the Toolbar 5 beta? http://toolbar.google.com/t5

Thank you, Jason, for your reply. The trouble is that although I started working with computers (programming) “way back” in the late 60’s, I have not kept up with all the advances or programming languages, so I’m really “in the dark” when someone tries to tell me I can “create my own” icon. Duh. Sorry, not me. I need them right out there where all I have to do is click on them and they “appear.”

Lois I agree, you’d think the default behaviour would be to grab the favicon.ico file as specified on the website they’re linking to in the toolbar.

I have a comment. Why should I be expected to know “how to” make a custom icon when there were already identifiable icons on my former Google toolbar on my old HP computer? Now all I get are those little generic blue things, and to suggest that the website I’m linking to doesn’t have a specific icon is just “incorrect.”
