Download and install FavOrg 1.2 from http://www.dothan.k12.al.us/vault .

I also use FavOrg 1.2.

The reason why this happens is because these icons are stored temporarily inside your Temporary Internet Files and they disappear when that folder is emptied.

Another vote here for FavOrg. I've been using it for several years.

I use FavOrg too, but a word of caution if you try it. Set it not to delete dead sites. The program only waits a short time for a site to respond, if the site happens to be slow at that moment FavOrg will mark it as a bad link. Test every bad link it identifies manually yourself before removing it. I have found about 25% of the links it identifies as dead are really still good.
