i put in the new password, but when i push enter to accept new password changes, the old number of digits (blanked out) appears and the prompt "do i want firefox to remember the new password" appears. i want firefox to forget the old password and let me change it and quit inserting anything i don't ask for each time.

Click the Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Security | Saved Passwords (button) | Show Passwords (button) and remove the old password in there.
