So you are saying that the password auto complete function still works on webpages that has this autocomplete=off in the form attributes. Do you have a test page for this, this would create a good test for a bug.

Please also check signon.storeWhenAutocompleteOff in the about:config. Others have also reported this recently for version 40, but have not had the bugs confirmed: 1199497
