If all else failes: Remove the username+password in the stored passwords of Firefox and than enter your new one.

Hi Archmage

Give this a try...

In Firefox, click edit > Preferences > Security tab > Saved passwords button

Remove your saved password from the list and revisit the site to test.

Let us know if this works,
