I'm not sure where this is documented, I get it too. AFAIK what happens is 
that some browsers will look for a favicon.ico file for the site and I 
guess that's what causes the msg you're finding on the error log. This file 
if you don't already know is the little website icon image file that some 
sites (mine included) provide. Some browsers e.g. Netscape 7 will display 
this icon on the nav bar. If you want to provide it you can find specs for 
the image file by googling favicon.ico and then put the image file on the 
main web directory of the site.

Hi,

you can also set it in html:
  <link rel="shortcut icon" href="my_icon.jpg">

Modern browsers will automatically request this file to display as the
"icon" for a site in the URL bar.

If you go to http://slashdot.org with modern browser you should see
http://slashdot.org/favicon.ico as the icon in the URL bar.
