I have Firefox as my default browser, but when i want to put an icon on the desktop i can only get a firefox one. Changing via properties only gives me an option of 3 firefox ones?

Do you mean a shortcut to start Firefox or a shortcut you create by dragging a website link or favicon to the desktop?

If you drag a link or favicon on the left end of the location bar onto the desktop to create an internet shortcut then that shortcut gets the icon of the default browser.
If you want a different icon (favicon) then you have to assign that icon yourself to the desktop shortcut (right-click: Properties).
You can usually get the favicon if you append "favicon.ico" to the main domain of a website (e.g. http://www.mozilla.com/favicon.ico ) to display the favicon in a tab and save that image to a folder or see if you can find it in "Tools > Page Info > Media".
