How to get my logo to appear in the URL box?

Question

If you ever notice when you go on websites like facebook or myspace or even apple's website you always see their logo right before the URL address in the box at the top of the page. How do you get the logo there? My logo is all over my site but can't seem to figure out how to put it there.

As Wyodor has pointed out, only one site can use CNAME forwarding and use favicon just by placing the file in the root of the server. If you have multiple domain names or sites you can add a favicon to those sites, with or without a domain name.
Just add the following code in an HTML snippet to each page:
<script type="text/javascript">
var head = parent.document.getElementsByTagName("head")[0];
var favicon = parent.document.createElement("link");
favicon.rel = ("shortcut icon");
favicon.href = ("URL TO IMAGE USED FOR FAVICON");
head.appendChild(favicon);
</script>
With this method the file name can be anything you'd like and the format can be either gif, png or ico. If you place the file in your iDisk/Web/Site folder the url to use would be:
http://web.me.com/MMeUsername/FileName
