It's possible that your Norton add-on is disabling the built-in Firefox feature to prevent confusion, i.e., saving passwords in two different places.

It appears, per cor-el, that Norton is aware of this issue,( and has for some time) but has not yet come up with a fix. It would be nice if they provided a definitive fix for this problem.
