This is a feature available on Seamonkey by altering about:config

user_pref("wallet.crypto", true); user_pref("wallet.crypto.autocompleteoverride", true);

But these same parameters don't appear to be present for FireFox.

Is there any way to override a website that trys to disable autocomplete of logons and passwords?

Use the Remember Password bookmarklet to override the website setting: https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/forms.html#remember_password
