Windows' 7 OSK doesn't type anything on any field on Firefox

And there's more:

If I run the OSK on windows on the first plane, it comes up as normal and interacts as normal with Windows, but not with FF

If I run the OSK with firefox opened and on the first plane, the keyboard DOESN'T EVEN SHOW UP (even though a osk process is running on task manager - as if firefox was blocking it from running fully)

Also, other buttons or combinations like Start+E, or Start+R, or even FN keys, that were supposed to interact with windows, do nothing when Firefox is focused

After some time (or something I do), the keyboard magically starts working on every typing field

On-Screen Keyboard: Click the program you want to use it on. Then click in the input field of that program.

If the keyboard is not visible, click its icon. Note: There is an option; "Always On Top"
