How to Remove a Favicon From a Drupal Site

The favicon is a small logo that appears next to a website's name in a window or tab. Not all websites use favicons, although most web browsers support their display. By default, Drupal-based sites display the Drupal "Drop" logo as a favicon. You may have also entered the path to a custom favicon logo to display instead. Either way, you can remove your Drupal site's favicon with ease.
