O.K. me too. It's because IE and maybe Mozilla are looking for a default icon but you don't have one.

No, IE and other browsers automatically try and fetch a favicon.ico from your site.. Just to be safe, you may make sure that you have the favorite icon Extra turned off in AutoTheme, but some browsers will request it anyway (it's a feature).
