When i enter my username into the box, Firefox displays a list of possible usernames. One of these suggested username contains my real username and my password (the password is only 1 letter less than my actual password).

This happens 3 times. At first i thought i may type that suggested username somewhere but after several trying, things seem to be normal again and i couldn't regenerate the problem.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Sorry for the trouble, it's me again. This happens when the loading is nearly done.
