Now I am jealous.  How does one turn this feature on in konqueror?

I found them under ~/.kde/share/icons/favicons ...  But the sites
which are there don't give me what I think is the action you are
speaking of. Are you saying that the icon shows up instead of the
world-"www"text-page picture to the immediate left of the h in http://
?

oh, I am running...

bash-2.05$ konqueror --version
Qt: 2.3.0
KDE: 2.1.2
Konqueror: 2.1.1
bash-2.05$
