When Firefox is opened, no keyboard input is allowed. I must find a tab or field I can click on before I can type in the URL box. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the application.

This happened

A few times a week

Keyboard input for normal form fields (and DHTML) screwed up with many sites (facebook, wunderground). Some keys don't work ('y', caps), backspace is unresponsive after a character or two. Happens with Window 7 N - all patches applied.

I also have this problem, every time I use Firefox. I'm also on Firefox 3.6.8 and Windows 7.

Reinstalling the keyboard driver had no effect, nor did running Firefox in safe mode. I also had the same problem with the Firefox 4 beta.
