I type one letter in the crossword puzzle successfully. All the next letters that I type appear as numbers in the puzzle. It does not matter which puzzle site I use. This happens with usa today, the latimes and stanxwords.

This does not happen with IE.

Are that Flash or Java objects?

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