favicon.ico being called from subfolders. Help with using .htaccess to redirect. [#481298]

I would like to redirect all users who get sent to:

example.com/browse/this-page

example.com/browse

I have tried to put the following in the htaccess file:

redirect 301 /browse/* /browse

But it keeps telling me that there is an infinite loop when I do that.

Can someone please help me forward all pages after /browse/ to /browse?

Thanks.

I have an additional similar one ...

redirecting people who get sent to:

/*/favicon.ico

/favicon.ico

Any thoughts of how to deal with that in htaccess?

It seems more like an apache issue. Please look in the apache doku.
