Why have some tab icons changed to a green leaf?
When I log on to the net the Mozilla Firefox Start page tab comes up as normal, with the little blue and orange icon. I use BBC web pages and AOL frequently, so these are pinned there also. Their icons, on their respective tabs were, BBC and AOL, each in black and white, in a little square. These two icons have each suddenly changed to look like a little green leaf. How can I recover the proper icons, please?

You can check for problems with the places.sqlite database file (bookmarks, history) in the Firefox profile folder.

Thank you, FredMcD. Your solution solved the problem. The favicons are showing correctly. Thank you also to Cor-el; seems like I may not require your solution, but I'll have a look at those sites anyway. Good to see there's so much volunteer help available when necessary. Thanks again, both.
