Remove favicon

    Hi-
    I’m trying to remove an old favicon, but have been unsuccessful after trying the following:

    1. Removing it from the root directory
    2. Removing it from the themes directory
    3. Clearing cache on browser (e.g., both Firefox and Chrome)
    4. Re-starting computer

    I’m no coding expert, but I even manually searched the header file (via the Dashboard>Appearance>Theme>Editor) and I can’t even find any reference to the favicon that keeps displaying. So I’m confused as to how the favicon could keep displaying if I don’t see it in the header/header.php file. Am I missing something obvious here? Thanks very much.

    <!– copy and paste code from header.php –>

    <?php
/**
 * @package WordPress
 * @subpackage Default_Theme
 */
?>

<?php } else { // No sidebar ?>
	#page { background: url("<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_directory'); ?>/images/kubrickbgwide.jpg") repeat-y top; border: none; }
<?php } ?>

</style>

<?php if ( is_singular() ) wp_enqueue_script( 'comment-reply' ); ?>

<?php wp_head(); ?>
</head>
