Typing problem only in Firefox!

more options

Only in Firefox, everything else is working okay: when I type, no matter what, it starts from the beginning of the keyboard and goes in sequence: e.g. if you look at the layout of the standard keyboard: starts at 1234..then -=qwe....and finally ,./ and back to 123. Please see picture attached.

Do you have any anti-keylogger software? I think ZoneAlarm includes something like that, based on past threads.

Thanks a lot, I disabled the anti-keylogger in Zonealarm and it's fine now, but the question is by doing so whether I'm losing part of the security in my system or not!?

Well, if there is a keylogger running, then it would be in a better position to read your typing with the ZoneAlarm feature disabled.

Is the feature easy to turn on and off? Mostly you need it when typing logins, so I suspect you could keep it off much of the time and turn it on when typing sensitive information.

I don't understand why the anti-keylogger works with other applications but not with Firefox. Could you submit that question to ZoneAlarm support?
