I have an issue with passwords when I first type them in any social or personal site, how can I hide the passwords when im typing so no one see them...
Well the thing is that when I open any site that requires passwords everyone can see what I´m typing instead of appearing dots like in old version for example:
username: littlegirl password: hjy --> this is what i dont want isntead of appearing words i want dots
just after typing and entering dots appears where can i switch this?

Hi,
Please check if this happens in Safe Mode. Safe mode disables the installed Extensions, and themes (Appearance) in Tools (Alt + T) > Add-ons. Hardware acceleration is also temporarily disabled - the manual setting is Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Use hardware acceleration when available. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if an extension, theme, option or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart.
Troubleshooting Extensions and Themes
An easier method would be to consider the Reset Firefox feature via Help (Alt + H) > Troubleshooting Information.
(To revert to the previous profile, close the new profile, start Firefox and choose the *.default profile. While the Profile Manager is open, you can also delete the newly reset profile (the one containing random numbers)).
Which security software (firewall, anti-virus) do you have?
