When I am asked for a new password, it seems Firefox pops up with a suggestion. I have "Ask to save passwords" turned off. I want 1Password to generate my passwords and the pop-ups do not follow my 1Password specs. Therefore, I think Firefox is displaying the pop-ups. Is this a known bug?

Does the attached screen grab look like a Firefox pop-up? Tell me what to look for please. If you want the Troubleshooting Info I'll need some time to figure that out and send. Thanks in advance. ~fm

That black one? It's not ours. Our pop-up uses this wording: 

Use a Securely Generated Password
Firefox will save this password for this website.
