The best engineered approach would probably be to load the page up into a WebView, BUT use the WebResourceLoadDelegate to stop it wasting time downloading any resource that isn't the favicon. But if it isn't critical, then downloading favicon.ico should probably be enough.

Hey,

I want to get the favicon of a URL address, but don't actually need any of the page's content. Is there an efficient way to do this besides hammering the site for this info? This image isn't critical, so something that works "most of the time" should be fine.

Thanks,
Mitch
