How to add a favicon?

Anyone know how to add a favicon to your site?

I have one created and it's uploaded in my root directory.

It's not showing up though...

I'm trying the <head></head> code from ever webpage I land on that shows you what to put and no dice.

    Is it a html site or a WP blog?
    (although the main idea is the same: have it on the server and make the proper linking to it)

    When the .ico file is in the images folder of your WP blog
    Code:
    <link rel="Shortcut Icon" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
    When the .ico file is in your root folder:
    Code:
    <link rel="Shortcut Icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />
