Missing Pelican Icon / Firefox Bookmarks

I'm using Firefox 3.03 on a PC.

I created a bookmark for this page:

http://forums.pelicanparts.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=8

And up until a month or so, it showed up on my Bookmarks Toolbar like this:



But, now it looks like this:



I noticed the changed icon matches one for another website I frequent. For some reason, this icon has taken over as some kind of default? Not sure.

I then created a new bookmark for the Pelican Parts home page, and it "sticks" just fine, e.g., the icon is the Pelican and stays the Pelican.

Why won't my bookmarked page remember to use the Pelican icon?

I tried a couple of add-in tools for Firefox that manage icons; they did allow me to change it, but each time I restared, the old icons were back.

WTF? Is there something about the Pelican site that the admin must define which icons are used by each page that is bookemarked? Or...?
