Use Firefox and Adblock to show open blockable items and it'll give you the path(URL) to every element that loads with your website it's easier this way when u want to change more than the favicon(from within your cpanel when you view your files you will know where to look bc you already know the path (folder) to the file you want to change it helps when you want to modify your template bc it loads all the urls hopefully this helps
