Uh, I took the icon file from www.spamcop.net and tried to open it as a 
.bmp file, and that didn't work.

I did a Google search for ircanview and got one match: a pr0n site.    :-/

But on the good side, when I looked at Mozilla's site, I noticed that their 
icon file doesn't end in .ico: it ends in .png. It's a 16x16 image. So I 
guess that clears that up. But thanks for the information anyway.
