    it downloads the beamng icon, however, i've now deleted my cache 11 times (and cookies once to see if that helped) but it is still the default vbulletin logo

    if needed, i use google chrome V 33.0.1750.154 m (latest according to chrome's build in updater)

    i just can't figure out what could be causing chrome to not accept the new favicon on my end

    I'd try clearing your "cached images and files" under "clear browsing data" in Chrome.

    as i've said, i've cleared it 11 (well, 12 now, just did it again) times now, still nothing


    hmmm, according to the forums, tdev was viewing the thread a few moments ago, either he's writing a really really long post, or he's going to see if there's something wrong on the server side causing it to not send the favicon correctly to chrome

    The problem is with you, it works just fine. I'd suggest finding other settings that you can clear out and maybe manually deleting the caches. Not that it really matters that much, favicons can be a little bit fussy. Although usually if there's a problem with them the fix themselves eventually.

    I had this problem when the thread was posted. Control-F5 was all I needed to fix it. Whatever is wrong is on your end. Control-F5 now and even switching onto my Linux VM and trying there returns the beamng icon.
