You won’t be able to get the favicon with Selenium you would have to use another program to grab it. The only way you would be able to get it is if your website rendered the favicon.ico as a link such as
However typically websites just store the favicon.ico in the root directory and on page request the browser retrieves it and drops it in the address bar or tab or wherever favicons are used. If this is how your favicon is rendered then there will be no code or anything to search for with Selenium.
Also the above code while it does work has some buggy support for IE7.
