Browsers usually cache this so you may need to clear your browser's cache, hhistory, etc. to see the change.

I have cleared the cache multiple times

IE is usually the browser with problems but in general they all work in a simialr way - http://jeffcode.blogspot.com/2007/12/why-doesnt-favicon-for-my-site-appear.html

I don't know what I'm doing wrong

No. You don't have to add any code to any template.
In file, /common_files/customer/service_head.tpl you will see:

Code:

<link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/png" href="{$current_location}/favicon.ico" />

SIMPLY name your icon, "favicon.ico" and put it in the store root.
CLEAR your browser cache.
Done.

Ok, I will sound like a totally newbie, which I am but how do I put the icon in the store root?

Could you please tell me in the cpanel, under edit templates, where is favicon stored?

DON'T use cPanel file manager for daily FTP tasks
use an FTP client
put your favicon.ico in the www root (wherever index.php is)
