IE8 FavIcons Utility

M

I am very surprised (and maybe I should not be) that IE8 does NOT
include a way to update FavIcons already built-in.

Firefox DOES have an Extension Add-on, CheckPlaces, that does this for
Firefox Bookmarks.

I already know about AM-Deadlink which is supposed to do this.

Does anyone know of a *better* tool or utility that will update IE8
FavIcons?

Thanks but FavOrg is VERY old. Doesn't even list WinXP in it's
compatibility list.

I know, I use their MyUninstaller. Very nice and sometimes better
than Add/Remove Programs.
