Requests to existing files execute index.php

Question

I use the following .htaccess code to enable friendly URLs in a website.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteBase /

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ index.php?$1 [L]

</IfModule>

The code works fine with a small exception. When I request a file in the browser (ie an image), the browser loads it (as I would expect), but along with that index.php gets executed.

I wonder why.

事实证明，浏览器正在发出GET /favicon.ico请求，并且由于服务器上没有该名称的文件，根据.htaccess文件中的规则，请求被重定向到/index.php 。
