Chosen solution

Current Firefox releases include sub domains as a suggestion in the drop-down list. If you have a lot of passwords then this can take some time to process and build the list.

You can set this pref to false on the about:config page to see if that has effect.

  • signon.includeOtherSubdomainsInLookup = false

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
