My guess is that your problem is either Firefox all by itself (unlikely but possible), or one of those plug-ins. Of all the plug-ins that might cause an issue with keyboard input, my first instinct is to check see if it's LastPass causing the interference. Since that plug-in specifically hooks into text input fields on the web browser, it's the first one to to look at. The others, I wouldn't expect could have any impact on browser text input.

On Firefox, I don't know how to temporarily disable plug-ins, since I'm a Chrome user these days. Anyone know?
