You can also (and should) place a favicon.ico in your webs www root directory - Browsers will read that even without the link rel - You mostly use the link rel when you want to use different favicons for different subdirectories - IE, you rmainpage might have one icon, but your /forum/ uses another, etc.
Use the template editor built into the forum in the admin area, find the header.tmpl and add the link rel there if you want it, else the changes you make will not stick over recomiling the themes (as naudjef mentioned!)

The favicon has to be placed in your servers www root, not in the www root referenced by the forum.
But adding a link ref will naturally work for you, just saying that if you place the favicon in the right folder, its not needed.
The surprise is that any changes you made will vanish, since you have only done changes in the compiled theme, not in the "code behind it" so to speak
