Firefox enters a password when password is turned off

When I go to the E-bay sign in page Firefox fills in both the Username and Password. I have never used Password in Firefox and it is turned off and the list is empty. I have deleted everything within Firefox that I can think of without success. This problem does not occur on other website sign in pages. Can you please help me cure this infuriating little problem.

Chosen solution

That would be the form filler built into Firefox. Click in the field, enter a character or two and STOP ! Using the arrow keys, highlight an unwanted entry. Then press Delete (Mac=Shift Delete). Repeat as needed.

The System Details list shows the LastPass: Free Password Manager. It is possible that this Password Manager is filling the password if you disabled the Firefox Password Manager or vice versa.
