When entering passwords on my bank or building society log in page the password box will not accept letters but will accept numbers. This has happened before, about 6 months ago but the problem went away until today.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
