Do you have adblock or noscript installed in Firefox? Maybe one of those

If those aren't default, then no. And that doesn't sound like anything
I would have on.

Well I left my adblocker working but had to temporarily allow scripts to
register and login.

Of course, it's hard to diagnose a problem with a website if you don't
tell us what the site is.

It's askmehelpdesk.com.

I went ahead and asked there, and one guy said he discovered that some
other people have had this same problem, and not with just this site,
so he thinks it's a quirk in Firefox itself. (I'll go to their forums
and ask.) I've never seen this before though. Rather than being a
"quirk" with Firefox, it might just be these sites just aren't made
right to work with it. OTOH, another guy answered who uses Firefox,
and has caps, and he's never had a problem.

Well, I can't get it to act strangely with FF 1.5.012 at all. Maybe there
is something else running on your PC that is interfering with the login
process such as an AV program that has some kind of bad script protection.

Don't have an AV running cause it was messing up the new board for
work and I've been delaying trying it again. (They've supposedly
fixed some stuff... something about, uh.. the way it was caching
something. I dunno.) Not to mention that it did the same thing at
work. You know, the other work.

I have installed... checking my list. Well, downloaded the newest
Flash & Java for work. And installed acrobat reader, alcohol, clony,
ghost, parition magic, spark (IM for work), excel, lotus, agent and 2
games. Will the real culprit please stand up.

One guy did post and said he's been using it with Firefox and having
no problems, but when I posted at the FF forum, only one person posted
and said he's having the same problem. He suggested typing the
password in like the address bar or something and then pasting it in.

Wow, lots of electricity in here. I was patting the Skittles bag to
see if there were any more and it just stuck to my hand when I lifted
it. Had my hand like a foot in the air and that bag just clung right
to it. It was kinda funny.

Never compare yourself to the best others can do,
but rather to the best you can do.
