So it's unlikely to be the password store (unless you use an online one
like LastPass). What about other browsers (Chrome etc.)?

Try a different machine to make sure your passwords haven't been changed
(e.g. by an intruder).

Try the same keyboard on a different machine if possible. Could be a kb
hardware problem.
