Chosen solution

We found the issue.

One of Firefox ADD ON PLUGINs was saving our passwords.

We deleted the plugin. (ironically, it was "MaskMe" a plug in that supposedly helps secure PRIVACY but instead saved our passwords for everything).

Sorry about the confusion. Warning to others - don't use "MaskMe" unless you want ALL your passwords & login info saved on a questionably 'secure' site, and autofilled whenever you may not want it to be.
