Put it into your header insert.

I mean, what do I put in the actual code?
link rel = "what goes here?" "image/x-icon"??? Not sure what to input for that.

That part doesn't need editing. The working code should look like this, except for the part in
blue
.
code:
<link rel="shortcut icon"type="image/x-icon"href="
ICON URL HERE
" />
Change the part in
blue
to the icon's URL.

Holy crap, it worked!
So, it
has
to be an "ico" file then? Would it work if it was just a plain jpeg?

You can probably use a JPEG if you get rid of
type="image/x-icon"
. It might not work in some browsers.
