modify the file: catalog/view/theme/themetitle/template/common/layout.tpl
You need to add this between the <head></head> tags:
<link rel="favicon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/icon" />
<link href="favicon.ico" rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" />
Hope this helps.

would be cool to have this functionality added into the admin section somewhere, perhaps where you add your shop logo!

Well we can kindly ask the development team to add this function in the next release, if possible.

A favicon is requested by default in OpenCart. If you do not have one, you will not notice but there is an error produced in the apache error logs:
[Sun Aug 02 10:54:32 2009] [error] [client *.*.*.*] File does not exist:
/home/jenny/www/favicon.ico
Once it is added it will immediately start to show, but if you have your site bookmarked, say on FireFox, you will need to unbookmark and rebookmark it, as FireFox keeps a cache of your bookmarks and you would not see it.
