You can easily create your favicon uploading an image to an online free generator.

Some examples :

http://favicon-generator.org

http://www.favicon.cc

http://www.genfavicon.com

http://www.favicontool.com

Thanks I created the favicon.ico file and uploaded to my root.
And that favicon file generating site is instructing to following code to the head section.

<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">
<link rel="icon" href="/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon">

Please tell me how add this code, I added this to Custom HTML in <head> section of every page: but did not work.

I created another one on http://www.favicon.cc/ and add html code which included the image to Custom HTML in <head> section of every page. No file uploaded. Now it is working. Thank you very much for your quick help.

But this is not working on Internet Explorer.

If you use the default themes you do not need to add that code.
If you have custom themes, see here :
