Firefox Autofilling Passwords Twice On Messenger.Com
First I tried all the suggestions I could find. And FF just kept double filling the password. So I did a completely fresh FF install to a separate folder with no cookies or passwords or anything saved, and never any extensions installed. Still double fills the password -- which makes it impossible to log in. I am using FF Portable, and tried both the latest version and an older version. What could possibly be doing this?

I have found out that this password entry behavior may be messenger.com hashing my password as part of their End-to-End Encryption. This in combination with login issues led me to believe the password was being changed before being submitted. Since original post I've tried with a couple other browsers and get the same result. Hope this helps others who come across this behavior.

To clarify… If I do a safe mode restart of my regular FF Portable install, with passwords and cookies for messenger removed… I then must do a manual entry of email & password, then as soon as it click login or hit enter, the entered password doubles and the save password prompt pops up.
