    Why does Chrome save google searches in the favicon file?


    Like, not just chrome, all chromium builds. I use SR Ware's Iron. But if you open notepad, your google searches are in there. Even if you use clicknclean and/or ccleaner... Those searches are in there, hehe... I delete this file because I don't want all the stupid searches I do always there. But what's up with that? Anyone know why? I don't see what the favicon file has to do with google search inputs.

    :)
